I have just been listening to the google Chrome press event live as it has been happening, and I have to say that I am indeed impressed. The new browser looks pretty amazing, and while I personally do not do much web app 
development, I am really looking forwards to trying it out for its increased stability and speed.
One funny thing…. at the end of the presentation the google gears download site went live and i found quite the google glitch. This screencap shows their broken download link =(
This may be the biggest software news this week! oh wait….
//edit//
The download is now working. Get it here
