A Closer Look At Chromium and Browser Security

GhostX9 writes "Tom's Hardware's continuing series on computing security has an interview with Adam Barth and Collin Jackson, members of Stanford University's Web Security Group and members of the team that developed Chromium, the open-source core behind Google Chrome. The interview goes into detail regarding the sandboxing approach unique to Chromium, comparisons between the browser and its competition, and web security in general."

These are all great ideas, and I hope Firefox and/or MSIE pick up on them, simply because I can't stand the Chrome UI.

Sorry, but that thing just isn't what a browser is supposed to be.

The uhderlying technology can be the greatest ever, but if the interface sucks, well, I won't use it.

Perhaps. My guess is they have logic like the following:

If you use Firefox, you probably already have heard about Chrome, and have decided not to switch. If you use IE, you probably have no idea that other browsers even exist, but you may know and like Google, so would be willing to give this Chrome thing a try.
