I have a new favorite browser. Rather than recap it from a developer's point of view I will just point to an excellent comic created by Google which introduces the new features:
http://www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/index.html#size=small&page=1
Some of my favorite features:
- Drag a tab out of the browser window, enabled by process separation.
- Resizing form fields (text area)!
- Minimalistic user interface.
- Everything else they added.
One oddity, Chrome is not added to the application path during installation. To get around this I just created a shortcut and put it in a common location which I have in my application path (the environment variable). You could also just add the Chrome application directory to path as well. With this I can now do Windows+'R' then 'chrome domain.com' and be wherever I need to be.
UPDATE:
Just after writing this I crashed it (it was on the chrome web page). And sadly, all the Chrome Windows closed as chrome became unresponsive and was killed by Vista (so much tab separation).
