Google’s browser,google chrome released.
Google chrome has been released,download and start surfing at lightning fast speed.This new development will take the fight for web dominance to the next level, with google advancing to a higher level,with microsoft trailing behind.
I just downloaded and is using it while writing this post. Installation started automatically on clicking install button. There was no file to be downloaded on to the computer.
It loads lightning fast on pressing on the icon and most visited pages can be viewed , just as in opera as windows in the body area. Creating bookmarks is very easy.
Tabbed browsing
While opening a new tab, we can either open a new normal tab or an incognito tab.
This is indeed a good development. Read more about incognito:
This is how google itself defines incognito
“For times when you want to browse in stealth mode, for example, to plan surprises like gifts or birthdays, Google Chrome offers the incognito browsing mode. Webpages that you open and files downloaded while you are incognito won’t be logged in your browsing and download histories; all new cookies are deleted after you close the incognito window. You can browse normally and in incognito mode at the same time by using separate windows.
Changes made to your Google Chrome bookmarks and general settings while in incognito mode are always saved.
To turn on the incognito mode, follow these steps:
- Click the Page menu
. - Select New incognito window.
A new window now opens with the incognito icon 
in the top left corner. You can continue browsing as normal in the other window.
