Google is about to release a new open-source web browser, Google Chrome on Sept 2 or 3, 2008.
To get more information on it, the 40 pages comic book is a good start point.
As usual, Google brings in a number of new ideas into web browser:
- Each tab/webpage run as separate process
- A new Virtual-machine based JavaScript engine V8
- A new Tabbed interface
- Using SandBoxing to keep away malware
- Interface for developers called Gears
As stated in the comic book, Google Chrome seems based on other opensource projects like : Mozilla and Webkit.
