When I first looked into Google’s new web browser, Chrome, I didn’t think it would me more revolutionary than a Safari or a Firefox, which were hardly revolutionary, just more refined. Then, I read the part about process isolation in Google’s comic book, and the light bulb went on. With security and recognition features also on the drawing board, Google isn’t just talking about a new web browser, they’re talking about a new, web-based operating system. Open-source, license-free, memory-protected, and Web 2.0 based.

I wonder what Microsoft’s take will be? Now where can I download this puppy?

$200 iPhones with an open SDK and a reduced contract requirement from AT&T are going to combine to accelerate the iPhone into corporate America.  Safari may just become the de-facto mobile browser standard. What’s more, all those banks and credit card sites that don’t work with Safari today are soon going to have 10 million customers for whom Safari support is important–the 10 million iPhone users Jobs is likely to have gained a few months after the 2nd-generation iPhone hits later today at WWDC.
