No need, Travis, you are welcome to include the code on this one
occasion.

Apparently not... Because no one else seems to have an opinion I
guess I will add my own...

First, the world uses google. So if they come out with an "easy to
install browser", and suggests to googleites that it would be good to
use it, I would assume that it will grab a nice chunk of the market
very fast. I would guess at the very least it will almost instantly
catch up with firefox. This is especially true if the said browser
actually does a good job of displaying pages.

With a little reading, it looks like Google is moving in the direction
of adding the ability to have google browser specific code on web
pages (nothing like opening the door for innovation). And I would
guess that Flash and some of the google products will be much more
integrated with the browser, allowing better/easier web application
development.

So, if it does take hold, we will have another browser to contend
with.

I expect they will do to the web what they did to Usenet:
try to take it proprietary.

I tend to agree with their philosophy. (Here is their philosophy if
you have not read it yet: http://www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/)

We use the web differently today than we did even a few years ago. It
is time for it to evolve. They want to be part of that evolution
(maybe even direct it a little). I am all for their innovations, and
the fact that everything they do is open source they want to share
their innovations with all the other browsers makers. Free code, free
innovation. But I am sure we will hear more than a fair share of
moaning and gnashing of teeth...

Is the information in that page available somewhere in a
readable format?

I noticed that as I clicked the next button to turn the pages, it
skipped a page as often as not and I had to go back (I *had* to go back
because I love reading comics)

Probably. I do agree I would have liked to have seen it in a non comic
book format. It is almost insulting to anyone with a briain.

I had to increase the size to make it readable and therefore had
to scroll right, left, down, right, left, down, right, left, down
in order to read a page.
