Again another inspiring step from GOOGLE yes really they know it better than anyone.its a milestone in GOOGLE's history.it has 1% share of browser market.it has releaseed as a beta version of microsoft windows

Chromium is the open source project behind Google Chrome, and is released under the BSD license. It implements the same feature set, but has a slightly different logo

release

The browser was first publicly released for Microsoft Windows (XP and later only) on 2 September 2008 in 43 languages, officially a beta version. Chrome quickly gained about 1% market share. Mac OS X and Linux versions are under development]n 2 September, a CNET news item drew attention to a passage in the terms of service for the initial beta release, which seemed to grant to Google a license to all content transferred via the Chrome browser. The passage in question was inherited from the general Google terms of service. On the same day, Google responded to this criticism by stating that the language used was borrowed from other products, and removed the passage in question from the Terms of Service.[Google noted that this change would "apply retroactively to all users who have downloaded Google Chrome." There were subsequent concern and confusion about whether and what information the program communicates back to Google. The company statedthat usage metrics are only sent when users opt in by checking the option "help make Google Chrome better by automatically sending usage statistics and crash reports to Google" when the browser is installed.

The first release of Google Chrome passed the Acid1 and Acid2 tests. While it did not pass the Acid3 test, it scored 78 out of 100 required to pass the test. This is higher than both Internet Explorer 7 (14) and Firefox 3 (71), but lower than Opera (84). When compared to development builds, Chrome scored lower than Firefox (85), Opera (99), and Safari (100), but still higher than Internet Explorer (21).
