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. |

I am the guy who just logs on Safari and opens a whole string of tabs with one click. I am the guy has never had a "tab" lock up which caused a loss of my other "tab" sessions. I am the guy who is blindly faithful to Steve Jobs. I am the guy who will not realize his life has improved because of "Open source" nor even know when it is needed or if he is even using it. I am the guy who sees the wave approaching though has no desire to paddle towards the impending crest. I am the guy who rises then falls. I am the guy who rises then falls. I am the guy who rises then falls. I am the guy who knows they come in sets of ten or twelve. I am the guy who knows the last great ride is measured only by the calm of this moment. I wait. I wait. Thank you Apple.

Jobs provides. (Jobs' team even provided the webkit framework, which was used for Chrome). Apple=Apple
