New Google Browser?
According to this New York Post article, Google may be set to give IE some competion in the near future.

Quote:
.........blogs and analysts believe Google is working on an instant-messaging program and a Web browser to challenge Internet Explorer.

The browser strategy is supported by other clues as well. Last month, Google hosted Mozilla Developer Day on its campus, a gathering of programmers that work together to build sequels to the re-named Netscape browser. Mozilla, which is "open source" and available to anyone, could be shaped to Google's specifications and be embedded with Google search, Gmail free e-mail and other Google applications.

"I'm willing to bet that somewhere in the Google computer system are the seeds of a browser," Stein said.

Now THAT would be an interesting concept. I'd like to see the timeline on it though......could be short if they've got some ex-M$ developers in their pocket.

When working on a browser, I don't think having ex-MS programmers on your side is a good thing.
