Here comes another good software from Google – Google Web Browser ! After installed and have a run, outstanding ! It feels really smooth and light.
After the installation, it let you choose where to import your data such as IE, Firefox etc. It works preatty much the same as FIrefox but lighter and slimmer. The interface is clean and neat which gives more space for web content.
