Official Google Blog: A fresh take on the browser - http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008...
I'm so proud of my friend Linus Upson for leading this project. He is the most accomplished engineer I've worked with. From his contribution to DBKit at NeXT before he could legally drink through founding three successful companies... and recently leading Gears and Chrome at Google, he's the embodiment of "smart"+"determined". He recently told me over dinner that his secret project will have significant impact. Not that I doubted him, but now that I know the details, I can't overemphasize how much impact it'll have. Congrats, Linus. - Amir Gharaat
