Google Chrome main features

The main features of Google's new browser include:

  • Google Chrome is a open source browser project.
  • Google Chrome will use a new, much more efficient, memory management. Allowing for faster loading times, a more optimal use of the resources, and controlled memory leaks.
  • Tabs move to the op of the window. Tabs are no longer elements in the browser windows bar, but have an individual window for itself.
  • An improved address bar. One feature is showing only the addresses you previously typed, not all urls.
  • Chrome has a privacy mode. Google says you can create an incognito window so that and "nothing that occurs in that window is ever logged on your computer."
  • Web apps can be launched in their own browser window without address bar and toolbar.
  • Chrome is constantly downloading lists of harmful sites to better fight malware and phishing attempts.
  • The browser will include a JavaScript Virtual Machine called V8.
All amazing stuff. And there is much more to come.
