What's it all about, Alfie?

This morning I saw that Google Chrome dev 14.0.806.0 was out and the big changes (other than breaking the Mac relaunching) is the latest V8 engine - 3.4.6.2. It's nice to see them continuing to make the JavaScript faster and better, even though it's all under the covers, it's becoming a platform for application building, and in that, it's nice that folks are still working on it.

I read a piece this morning about the browser being "done" - and for the feature set it focused on, it pretty much is. Pages render, links work, speed is pretty good, so it's all going to come down to polish. If you can make the JavaScript faster, then more complex things can be done in it, and the "richness" grows. I'm hoping that they keep pushing Apple to improve Safari as well. It's a nice platform to build on.
