Google Chrome is really nice! I’ve been testing it for only a few moments on my MacBook, using Windows XP running in a VM.

It’s super fast.

Launching the app takes about 0.5 seconds, and you can start surfing right away.

The Speed Dial function on the first page wasn’t working yet, there was a message that I should use Chrome a while longer before any sites would show up. Just gimme some time, Google :)

Browsing the web is pretty fast, of course, every depends on your connection. I had to reinstall the Flash player, and I loved it: multiple tabs were open, one tab was requesting to install the Flash player, which I did, and after installing the Flash player, only that tab reloaded and everything worked. No more “restart the browser” messages. I really love it!

Message to Google: bring us asap a Mac and Linux version, please!

Big news! Google will release it’s very own, created from scratch, webbrowser very soon!

It’s called Chrome, and I think it’s very promissing: multi-threaded, multi processes per tab, each tab in a sandbox … More details can be found in the comic.

Unfortunatly, it will be launched Windows only. Mac and Linux will be released a bit later.

Something to watch closely!

Thanks to the BBC tv-show Click online I just discovered cuil.com. 

Cuil.com has re-invented searching the Internet. It displays the search results in colums AND you can (thanks to Ajax) narrow the searchresults per subject.

It’s something to keep an eye on!
