Google aiming browser at Microsoft; test version debuts today
| September 2, 2008 |  View for printing |
Google is releasing a Web browser to compete with the likes of Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Mozilla's Firefox, trying to dominate not only what people do on the Web but also how they get there.
It's a new salvo in the intensifying battle with Microsoft, which recently released a test version of Internet Explorer 8 that makes it easier to block ads from Google and others.
A beta version of Google's browser for Windows, called Google Chrome, will debut today in more than 100 countries. It will offer features that make it easier and faster to browse the Web.
