The Google Browser

It appears that the long fabled browser from Google is indeed real, and will be coming soon to a desktop near you. Soon it would seem as in tomorrow according to Google themselves.
There are plenty of posts round the the intarwebs about this, including a 38 page comic book introduction to Google Chrome, by comic artist extraordinaire, Scott McCloud.
Chrome is based on Webkit, the opensource browser engine found in Safari, the iPhone, Nokia S60, Android, and elsewhere as well apparently as using components from Mozilla/Firefox. It will have native support for Gears, a toolkit that adds offline support for web applications running in browsers, a big step forward for browser based rich internet applications (Gears is currently supported in Firefox and Internet Explorer, with experimental support in Webkit nightly builds).
A chance to see even more innovation and cross pollination in the browser space. Exciting times.
