Google Chrome Browser is Out Now

Search and advertising giant Google will today launch a trial version of its own web browser in a clear attempt to break Microsoft's dominance over the way people access the web.

Google say their software, called Chrome, is designed to handle the latest web services such as video-rich pages and online office document editing faster and more securely.

A rethink of the browser is needed, says the firm, because existing programs have their roots in an age when the web offered only text and images.

Google confirmed its browser's existence in a company blog post after it mistakenly mailed details of Chrome to a blog.

Comic error

A 38-page comic book sent to the blog – available to view online here – described Chrome and its creators' hopes for the product.

A trial version of Chrome for Windows users will be available from this site on tomorrow. Versions for Apple Mac and Linux users are planned.

Chrome's launch coincides with the introduction last month of Internet Explorer 8 by arch-rival Microsoft last month.

Roughly 75% of all web users access the web using a Microsoft browser, around 18% using the open source Mozilla Firefox and 6% Apple's Safari browsers.

Open source

Google's engineers have used open-source code from a variety of projects including Apple's Web Kit used in Safari, and Firefox.

Chrome's code will itself be open source – available for other developers to enhance and expand.

Google says that Chrome will load pages faster and more securely than rival browsers. It also has a purpose-built engine for loading the interactive JavaScript code behind many of the advanced features of current websites. This is designed to Chrome run the next generation of yet-to-be-invented web applications.

Google stands to benefit from people using the new software. Google's Toolbar already collects information about the pages visited by users, which helps the company tune its search and advertising services. Chrome could collect information in a similar way.

'Porn mode'

Another feature is a privacy mode that lets users create an "incognito" window where "nothing that occurs in that window is ever logged on your computer".

A similar feature, dubbed "porn mode" by bloggers, was recently announced by Microsoft for Internet Explorer 8. Apple's Safari already features a private browsing mode.

John Lilly, chief executive of the non-profit company Mozilla Corp that promotes Firefox, said Google had recently renewed its arrangement to be the largest financial backer of his company until 2011.

Mozilla recently introduced its own upgraded browser, Firefox 3, and has collaborated with Google on technical issues in the past, such as how to make browsers more secure.

Lilly says that Mozilla and Google would continue to collaborate where it made sense for both organisations.

But he acknowledges things have changed: "With [Explorer], Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc – there's been competition for a while now, and this increases that."

Kathmandu University Closed due to Student’s Strike [Politicizing Minor Issues, Why ? ] #Pictures

निर्वाचन पछि जे होला भन्ने डर थियो, आखिर त्यही नै भयो ! नजाँनिदो रुप मा काठमाडौँ विश्वविद्यालय (केयु) मा पार्टिगत राजनिती ले जरा गाडिसकेको छ र यो झांगिने क्रम बढ्दो छ । वर्ष मा १ एक पटक केयु मा राजनितिक दल समर्थित विद्यार्थी संगठनहरुले आन्दोलन गर्ने, क्याम्पस बन्द गर्ने कुरा अब कुनै नौलो घटना रहेन । एउटा समूह ले जित्ता अर्को ले आन्दोलन गर्ने नराम्रो परिपाटि त काठमाडौँ विश्वविद्यालय मा बसि नै सकेको छ । विश्वविद्यालयलाई राजनिति मुक्त गराउनु पर्ने बेला मा, विश्वविद्यालय मा राजनितिक चलखेल बढ्दा, बन्द र आन्दोलन जस्ता घटना सामान्य बनिसकेका छन् । काठमाडौँ विश्वविद्यालय ले केयु मा राजनिति गर्न कुनै पनि राजनितिक विद्यार्थी संगठन स्विकार गरेको छैन । तर बाहिर बाहिर जति, विद्यार्थी को चुनाव भनिन्छ, त्यति नै भित्री रुप मा पार्टिहरु को चलखेल बढ्ने गरेको छ । यहाँ को चुनाव पनि ‘टियु’ मा हुने विद्यार्थी चुनाव जस्तै बनिसकेको छ, फरक यत्ति हो ‘टियु’ मा झन्डै बोकेर निर्वाचन मा ओर्लन्छन् भने, ‘केयु’ मा झन्डा लुकाएर निर्वाचन मा ओर्लन्छन् तर त्यही लुकाइएको झन्डा नै ओढेर यहाँ राजनितिक गतिविधि हुने गरेको छ । ...

Shirish Ko Phool : Review & Download

One of the finest book ever written in Nepali literature....Shirish Ko Phool and one of my personal favorite. I have read this novel over four times or say five times..and each time I finish the novel I feel pang and it hangs on my head for so many days. Why guilt is so painful that made such a strong woman called Sakambari to suicide..or die…?? The novel has a wonderful language..the simplest of all. When I had read it for the first time..to tell the truth that I hadn’t really understood the novel, I felt the love story in it and I could not understand the passion in the novel.. But this day I may say I am able to figure out the passion and the feelings of the author.. I really appreciate the wonderful story, the plot the real setting, the real characters…and the situation of the novel till it ends. The pain of running away from the feelings and passion. When the Suyogbir says.."Ma glass ma bhagchu” ( I forgot the line exactly…). The feeling is that we run away from pai...
