Firefox users - look out. The Mighty Google has released it's own web browser, Chrome

, namely to take out Microsoft Office (but that's a whole different story) but it's sending shivers down the spines of power users that want their browsers and broadband connections to fly.

It's especially fond of pages that use lots of Javascript, so if you're one of the 2% of the browsing public that has javascript turned off (because you're still scared you might get a malware popup or something) you're S.O.L.

Sadists may want to check out the cartoon that explains why Google thinks Chrome is the shit - read through that epic novel here.

Download the program here and try it yourself. But there aren't any mouse gesture plugins yet. At least, none that I can find.
