Internet search giant Google officially released a test version of it’s Internet browser called Chrome in a direct challenge to rival Microsoft. Google’s Chrome comes a few days after Microsoft released it’s own Internet Explorer 8 browser. The new Internet browser which Google says brings a “better Web experience” adds a new dimension to a market dominated by Microsoft’s Internet Explore.
Google Chrome will be free and is based on open-source software just like Mozilla’s FireFox.

Just like Microsoft, Google is offering “privacy mode” which enables you to search without living your virtual ‘footprints’. The test version is available for download in 100 countries. The Google Chrome beta version, currently only in a version for Windows XP and Windows Vista is available for download from Google’s search page.

I’m going to download it and give it a try. Are you going to try it or have you tried it yet?

Have your say.
