Chrome is good news for the ABM crowd
,----[ Quote ]
| It's evidence of the lack of innovation in software engineering these days
| that Chrome has been greeted in some quarters as something akin to the second
| coming.
|
| For instance, that idea about having each separate tab run in its own sandbox
| as it were - how come none of the great programming minds, whom we see
| commenting on a myriad things every day, thought of that?
|
| Microsoft's concept of browser design is exactly the opposite - any time the
| browser gets stuck, the whole system goes down with it. Reboot, restart and
| then continue browsing. (If you like, you can also reformat).

| One question that keeps popping up is SAAS a GPL dodge? Since the software
| itself is not distributed, but merely accessed by thick clients, hosts can
| use and modify it all they want to without triggering the
| releasing-modifications clause. Google itself is the poster child for this.
| In effect the GPL becomes more like a BSD license- any contributions back to
| the community are voluntary and not required.

| Soon after they announced, I'd been hoping to take Google Chrome for a test
| drive. The comic book laid out a lot of interesting things, my favorite being
| the discussion of separate processes leading to detachable (and "retachable")
| browser tabs, something I have been touting for years as a long term Galeon
| user. My big problem though? I run Linux, and Google has so far left Linux
| support on the back burner. Still, I figured that someone had probably made a
| Linux build available by now, so inspired by John McCain's speech on TV
| tonight, I set about seeing if I could get it set up.

A Linux users' guide to Google Chrome
,----[ Quote ]
| Today, I’ll show you how to obtain and build the Linux source. A heads up:
| you won’t be Chroming after this, Google haven’t finished porting it to Linux
| and I’m certainly not smarter than the Google engineers and have no magic
| fix.

Chromium Build Instructions?

Chromium - Open Source Chrome
,----[ Quote ]
| As you might have noticed from our Google Chrome coverage, we're pretty
| excited about the potential -- even if it hasn't lived up to everyone's
| expectations. Much of that potential is tied-up in the architecture used to
| create Chome. As Google continued to reiterate during yesterday's webcast,
| Chrome is open source.
