There's a beta release coming out tomorrow morning in more than 100 countries, so I've tried to collect as much information as possible tonight to help us all prepare for what will clearly be a busy week in the search industry.

What I'm seeing as the major barrier for Google to overcome is how to get this onto people's computers.

See also our take (Sphinn link).

This article covers all of the "what" clearly, but what about the "why"? Why do I need to know this information? Better yet: why should I care?

I'll be interested to see how this browser competes with Firefox...which is clearly the preference to IE for those of us in the industry anyway. 

I agree with ianmacfarlane above in that the challenge, as has been the case with Firefox, is getting people to make a switch from IE since if they were comfortable making the transition to a better browser they would have already done so...to Firefox.

One question - where's the homepage button, so I don't need to keep typing my homepage URL? :)

The browser is awesome, I thought FireFox was good but this is even better.
It also has a major impact online marketing though, see my article: http://sphinn.com/story/70132

Ah, it's in "Options > Basics". Where's the "embarrassed" smiley? :)
