Google launches Chrome

Google has announced that it will release an open-source browser known as Chrome.

Features will included "isolated" tabs designed to prevent browser crashes.

Having a number of tabs open in a single browser eats up memory. If a browser is running slow, a user's natural inclination is to close a few tabs. With Chrome, there will be a different tab for each process. This speeds up overall performance and saves the entire browser from crashing when one tab causes problems.

What is Incognito mode in Chrome


Don’t want pages you visit to show up in your web history? Choose incognito mode. Browsing in incognito mode keeps Google Chrome from storing information about the websites you've visited.

To turn on the incognito mode, follow these steps:

Click the Page menu.

Select New incognito window.

A new window now opens with the incognito icon in the top left corner. You can continue browsing as normal in the other window.
