Google announced yesterday that they will enter the Internet browsers market, and typical of Google, in the pursue of building hype the announcement was made into a comic book which is available here.

Is there something special in this browser? Well, some of the things that make it special at least in my case, are:

• Built from scratch, thinking of the latest trends and user navigation habits on the net.
• Claims to offer better performance, security and simplicity.
• Is not going to be single-threaded, and instead of multi-threaded it will feature multiple processes.

This will help the browser in the stability matter, if you have one tab open which is running javascript and it crashes, the whole browser doesn't as well, just the tab in question. And another benefit would be that closing a tab will give you back the memory that was being used by that tab.

• You have a task manager, so you can monitor the CPU and Internet usage of each site.
• Google can tests their browser on tens of thousands web pages
• And, is Open Source!!!

Well, it seems quite interesting to see more competitors in the browsers war arena. As for Mozilla Firefox, it will always have its loyal fans, and those who are going to switch to Chrome (or more likely another Open Source browser), and for Internet Explorer, it will always have its loyal fans, and those who are going to switch to an open source browser. So, Internet Explorer is the one who can loose the most, that means no worries there then. :-D

I just highlighted some of the features, read the comic for all the details.
