Hey, um, so I was in the middle of IE. (Engineer on IE2-4; standards and PM IE5-6; GPM IE7-early 8). And I'm about to hit ten years at Google, 9 of them on Chrome. Chrome is many things - but I'm in a unique position to state, Chrome is *not* the new IE. (cont)
... IE was what happened when Microsoft conquered the browser space (where there really was only one other serious player), without any clear sustainable vision of what was "next". Chrome has plenty of ideas of what's "next" for the web - and they're not just about Google. (cont)
