Google claims they build a better mouse trap or better browser. The new chrome web browser is light and fast. It has multiple tabs and each tabs runs isolated so, if one tab hangs it doesn't crash the whole browser.

The browser also contains better support for Javascript with it's powerful Javascript engine. It's an open source browser and it uses components from Apple's WebKit and Mozilla's Firefox, and others.

Google is no doubt going head on with Microsoft because of their new browser.

Chrome also incorporates a browsing mode which does not save a user's browsing history. Microsoft calls this feature "InPrivate" and Google dubs it "Incognito".

You can download a beta version of the chrome browser at google's website.
