Google on Google Chrome

I wonder if Chrome will hurt Mozilla's well reported search income.

I'd bet on it.

I understand why they did this (right now my OmniWeb has a rsize of 1GB and vsize of 2.9GB), but the idea of a process manager for a browser still bothers me.

I loved it. Comics are way underused in marketing. They're the best of both video intros and text.

Also, the scope of what they're trying to explain in that comic? Extremely impressive. Virtual machine architecture. Heap fragmentation. Fuzz testing. They had Scott McCloud draw it? Porn!

I thought it was great. Stuff like this works on so many levels:

- Presents a bunch of information in a memorable, easy to digest fashion.

- Kept my attention from beginning to end (the mind - mine at least - loves novelty)

- Recruiting tool - underlines what a cool place Google is can you see a Cisco or IBM ever doing this?

- Nice way to credit the engineers and designers.
