Yesterday I installed the brand new shiny Google Chrome browser and was impressed. I liked the comic, especially the bit about how processes were handled, although it’s worth noting that MS have outlined a similar scheme for IE8, Im guessing Microsoft will be annoyed.

So far, I have seen a few rendering bugs, one on http://news.bbc.co.uk (at the top) and one Tumblr using it’s editor, although I have seen no similar issues with a similar editor that I use for my SqooDriver CMS.

The other astounding thing I found last night was this, which is really amusing:
That’s right, Chrome’s spellcheck doesn’t know the word Google!

The other interesting bit of browser news I have seen is this Vimeo video about Ubiquity from Mozilla, a text based system that allows you to do things naturally without having to go to loads of sites and cut and pasting code (I could have done with it for this post for example). Stunning if it works, it may even be a Chrome killer for me:
