currently surfing with the Google Chrome web browser (only works in windows for now) - pretty cool so far. I'm reading through the comic strip that describes the engineering decisions (here) and every time I click on the arrow to advance a page, it advances two pages, and I have to go "back" - funny.
When I was in law school in 1993 (and for the next few years), I worked in the "Legal Information Institute", and we had what I still think is the first web browser for MS Windows, called Cello - (read more here) but we forgot it like a dentist appointment when mosaic for windows (and then Netscape) came out. It occurred to me that, besided lynx, pretty much all current web browsers shared a common ancestry (Mosaic, that is), and that the "aboriginal" browsers, like Cello, had all died out. But here's a new one -- that's kind of big deal, really. Can't wait to try it on a mac. |
