Google watchdog Phillip Lessen has scanned and posted a printed comic he says he received in the mail from Google today describing the company's forthcoming open source browser Chrome. The link to Chrome is currently a 404. Long rumored to be in the works, this appears to be the first formal acknowledgment that Google really is working on its own browser - and it looks very cool. Will you drop Firefox and use Chrome instead? ...Shared by 88michael (6) aak (1) Abhishek (5) Adam (16) AJ (168) Alex (8) Andrew (7) Andy (7) Anna Richter (2) Anthony Romano (8) arjo (25) asblogger (19) atul (71) BNPrade (1) Bob Caswell (15) Bob Hazlett (7) Bobbi Newman (15) Brian (26) Caleb (5) CannonGod (190) Chris L (20) Christopher Martin (60) Corvida (62) Dedalus (16) Dimitar D (36) Drew Olanoff (125) dryan (6) Dzu (19) Earl E Morningwood (43) Emily Malloy (1) Eric Herberholz (31) fordchao (43) Forrest (21) Glenn (23) Götz (23) GUNA (17) Hari Kishore (2) Henk-Jan van der Klis (9) Hisham (21) Jandy (11) Jason R.

These 2 men (C. R. Mitra & K. K. Birla) are complete strangers to me.

It’s amazing how strangers in the past and present are helping you shape your future. Probably, that’s what is termed as leaving behind a legacy!

One of the reasons why the guitar has become a staple in pop culture is its immediate accessibility.
