Its interesting to know that Mike Pinkerton is also the project lead on Camino. If working on one large OSX browser wasn't enough he is also involved in Chrome on Mac, that is pretty cool.


I believe he was hired for the job because of his Camino experience.


It's not very cool to watch Camino stagnate.


This is great progress!

Can't wait. Wonder how fast it will be in comparison to Safari.


Finally some reassuring news. Ever since last fall I've been wondering every two weeks: Where the hell is Chrome for Mac?


I'm a bit concerned about the UI. It seems like they did their best to copy the Windows UI using custom Cocoa widgets, which is fine in its own right, but leads to some weird inconsistencies. Namely, the huge gap on the far left past the tabs.


I'm pretty sure that the final polished version won't look like that.


I dunno, Google seems to have a penchant for re-inventing the wheel when it comes to UI. ;P
