I have been using the Chromium web browser now for a few weeks on my Ubuntu Linux system. It is still a beta product but I have got used to its snappiness and also enjoy some of the extensions available for it. Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web. There is also a new Operating System being developed called Chromium OS which is focused around the browser and web applications such as Goggle Apps. Both are exciting innovative developments.
I decided to testdrive Lucid Lynx Alpha 3 (10.04) over the weekend and installed it in parallel to my current version of Karmic (9.10). It replaced the latest release of Fedora I had tried out.
