Make way for Google Chrome, Google’s new web browser

Google is set to introduce a new Web browser, designed specifically to handle rich-media, video and other complex Web programs, called Google Chrome.

So why are we launching Google Chrome? Because we believe we can add value for users and, at the same time, help drive innovation on the web.

The launch of Chrome coincides with the recent introduction by arch-rival Microsoft of its Internet Explorer 8 last month. Internet Explorer holds roughly three-quarters of the browser market, followed by Mozilla’s Firefox and Apple Inc’s Safari browsers.
