Google Chrome has been arrived now since while..!

And war of browsers is continue with added competitor. End users are going to benefit from this as they will get better user experience as an end result of all these browser competition. So as the outcome we as end users will get feature rich, friendly, fast and secure browsing experience from most of the browsers as all of them will try to raise the bar.

Yes, Web Developers have one more browser in the list to be tested for their application or web site compatibility. Chrome is in it's beta and didn't passed ACID test yet.

There are some really nice features like:

  • In-build Task manager for ending process of each tab or viewing details of each tab.
  • Incognito mode. (Don't leave any trails when you browse).
  • Separate process running for each tab, so that one bad page won't crash rest of the tabs.
  • Ability to drag tabs out of the browser window. (That's fantastic..!)
  • Great space saving and clean look and design giving maximum viewing area for a web page.
  • Ominibox as smart Addressbar

If you didn't tried it yet, then give it a try. You can download it here.
