Google's browser...

Google had just made the first BETA version of his (open-source) browser available.

First impression is good! The browser starts really fast with a simple UI as Google knows hwo to make them.

Browsing is also fast, using the same rendering engine as Safari (i.e WebKit)

Oops, I also forgot to give its name: Google Chrome

Read the comics explaining the history of the browser,
Download and install it,
And finally check that your web sites render properly with Safari and Chrome ;-)
