Google Chrome Rocks!

Today, Google released their new Chrome web browser! Immediately I downloaded it and am now creating this entry using it. First impressions are:

Cleaner interface when compared to Firefox and certainly IE: which could also be taken to mean fewer bells and whistles.

Consumes less vertical real estate: no status bar and no toolbars which is a big plus when using a smaller netbook with a 12 inch monitor.

Only available for Windows XP/Vista OS: certainly since Chrome is the child of Apple's Webkit and Mozilla's Firefox the Linux and Mac OS versions will be release soon.

Auto-magically imports Firefox bookmarks and passwords and allows for viewing and editing of passwords.

Dynamic tabbing allows one to pull the tab into its own window and back onto the tab bar.

A right-click in the Tabs Section allows one to start a mini-Windows Task manager.  A great feature to see, on a tab by tab basis, how certain tabs are behaving or misbehaving;  allows for termination of a tab if so desired.

Incognito mode:  The pages viewed in the incognito window won't appear in browser or search and no cookies!

When maximized it prevents with the Windows toolbar from auto-hiding/showing. Oh well - something to fix in version 2.
