Google Chrome

Update 2: As I just discovered after spending the last 30 minutes downloading code, they have now put up a disclaimer on their build page explaining that the code is incomplete as far as actually running a full browser goes on operating systems besides Windows. Poohbah.

For those of you who don't run Windows, waiting to try Google Chrome, their developer website is also up with instructions on how to build for other systems.

I'm not sure why this hasn't gotten much press, but check out http://dev.chromium.org/. Evidently the open-source effort is called Chromium.

Update: yeah, so their build instructions involve downloading 2.6 GB of data, just so you're aware.
