Google Chrome is the latest browser to hit the web, and within a few weeks from its release it already reached almost 2 million downloads. Many users believe that Chrome will soon be a serious competitor of Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Internet Explorer as it offers different features such as browser tab isolation.

Brendan Eich, Mozilla CTO is studying the Chrome’s stability using tabs and he is very positive on the developments on the latest browser. “There are good process-isolation tricks that Chrome does that we’re looking into, so we’re simply going to look at better isolation techniques for security and integrity,” he said.
