It seems Google wants to take over the world, Earlier this week Google released its own web browser Chrome. You can Read the previous post for more information. Currently its available for download only in the Windows Platform (Windows XP SP2/Windows Vista). A statement by Google co-founder Sergey Brin has linked Chrome with Google’s upcoming mobile operating system Android. Just in case if you are wondering what is Android, Android is Google’s Open Source Operating System for the mobile phones (just like Microsoft’s Windows Mobile), already the first handset in development by HTC powered by Android is going to roll out in Q4 2008 or early 2009. The handset is named HTC Dream.

In a recent interview with CNET,Brin claimed that “…a subsequent version of Android is going to pick up a lot of the Chrome stack.”

Both browsers i.e Chrome and Android’s Web Browser are built with the same Webkit rendering engine (Other browsers such as Safari(iPhone), Safari Mobile, and Nokia’s S60 Browser are also powered by this engine) however other features such as the user interface, CSS and JavaScript engines, and support for extensions and plugins will be the ones to look out for.

Google has announced Chrome to be available on both Mac and Linux in the near feature, although the dates not given yet. (You can run Chrome in Linux using Wine though)
