Firefox vs. Chrome: Is It a Fight if Everyone Wins?
,----[ Quote ]
| As a new entrant into the ongoing browser wars, Google's Chrome is seen as a
| threat mainly to the market share of Firefox. However, the people at
| Firefox's sponsor, the Mozilla Foundation, aren't worried. The real winner
| might just be all of open source.

,----[ Quote ]
| One of the most impressive features in Google's open source Chrome web
| browser is V8, a high-performance JavaScript virtual machine that was
| developed by a team of specialists in Denmark. Although Chrome's performance
| beats the current stable version of Firefox, benchmarks show that Mozilla's
| next-generation JavaScript engine actually outperforms V8.

playing with chrome on linux
,----[ Quote ]
| 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.

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.
