You already saw Google Chrome's humorous about:internets Easter egg, but reader nettleman points out that Chrome's got several special about: pages that reveal all sorts of interesting information about what's going behind the scenes. Here's the full list, with screenshots. about:memory about:stats about:network about:internets about:histograms about:dns about:cache about:plugins about:version Update: Mawin adds that you can also go to two special pages on a per-site basis. view-cache:[URL] shows you some under-the-hood cache details, and view-cache:[URL] shows ...Shared by AaronTN (36) Abhishek (11) Adam (15) Alexander Williams (18) alphakamp (30) Amir (17) Andrés Milleiro (39) Andrew (29) angus (5) AnilG (24) Bill Mensch (3) bkim (27) Brad Brooks (10) Brian Landau (20) Bwana (74) Carl (7) charlie anzman (112) Chris (1) Christian Santos (72) ckaroli (45) Cogo (20) Colin (6) Craig (20) DarkBls (73) David (1) David Givens (6) DC (11) DigitalMike (60) Dino (8) Emmett (16) Eric (52) federico silva (22) fesja (13) G.

- Rick Umali said: Yes, I've succumbed. I am reading and posting on Google's Chrome. Nifty "about:" URLs here.
- rpy said: DNS pre-caching - cool idea. Users get a faster web experience, DNS infrastructure is already distributed enough that it can take the hit. Expect to see this in the next generation of all other browsers.
