As mentioned in yesterday's EOD, Google has made Chrome (beta) available for download today. The open source web browser, designed to be fast and especially good with web applications, is set to take on Internet Explorer and Firefox. It has launched as beta for Windows, with versions for Apple Mac and Linux to come. Many people see this as likely to reignite the browser wars. With Google's unmatched online presence it's very likely, even considering the fact that Internet Explorer has such a huge installed base (even Firefox has just 20% of the browser market), that this will prove to be a very successful and smart move for them. We're all very keen to try it out here at Plusnet Towers - particularly in the web team. We'll let you know how we get on with it. Peter
