Google has release their open source browser and I gave it a try yesterday. It’s based on the Mozilla framework.

It took only a couple of minutes to download and install the browser. I came across a couple of awesome features while clicking around the browser.

  • There’s a real-time search integrated to the navigation bar, which also searches for domain names while typing urls; e.g. it matches etickets.lk when I typed etickets – this is different from Firefox as this was the first time it visited this site.
  • There is a control panel to stop tabs and plug-ins
  • There is a detailed list of memory used by each tab and plug-in
  • It has a cool start page which shows the frequently visited sites
  • Then, there are incognito windows. No trace of what you browsed in these windows will be saved. This is very handy if you are using a public computer.
