On: Google Chrome, Google's Browser Project

What's the angle for actually getting folks to use this browser? It's taken years to get mom-and-dad to using Firefox.

If I was them, I'd be looking at:

- selling it as a corporate intranet platform -- in fact, knowing Google, this is probably already in beta internally

- similarly, convincing corporations to make it the installed browser of choice, due to improved security

- selling a low-priced GooglePC, or even giving it away. Preconfigured internet with some partner, and make Chrome the default and only shell, with prominent links to Google apps.

- putting it on cell phones via Android? But it sounds like the Android team is going with WebKit and not Chrome just yet.

If I was them, I'd also advertise it on my website, you know, just in case someone visits google.com one day.
