In this video, I give my first impressions of the fresh, new web browser, Google Chrome. Chrome was developed by Google in order to improve performance of web applications. They have rewritten underlining code for javascript to improve speeds. Apple and Mozilla are also developing similar technologies as well. My first impressions are fairly positive. Some nifty features that I really liked were the Task Manager which allows you to view each tab as a process, and then view its cpu, memory, and network consumption. If you navigate to about:memory in Google Chrome, it gives you a great overview of system resources for Google Chrome AND other open browsers such as Firefox. I have run into some problems which I kind of expected from a "beta" product. For example, if you navigate to a youtube.com video and make it full screen, it will crash the flash plugin. Since Google has been sensitive to browser crashes, these type of crashes won't bring down the entire browser. Simple refreshes will bring back flash on open tabs. Neat. There are a wealth of other features that are available but these are the ones that stood out to me after half a day of light usage. Enjoy!
