War of the Browsers - Google Chrome vs. Microsoft IE8

Last week I got to download Microsoft IE 8 Beta and this week the launch of Google's Chrome has been made. With this launch, Google would be slowly getting part of Microsoft's share and we users are sure to be benefited with new and innovative options being offered for us to experience and choose.

Here's an official comic by Google explaining the features of chrome and a tour by Microsoft IE8.

Eagerly waiting to experience chrome.....
