Chrome for the Mac came out today. I'm not sure why I'd use Chrome on the Mac, since I already have an excellent Web-Kit based browser called WebKit. But, it did get me thinking I'd like to try running some Web-kit on my Ubuntu desktop machine
I'm running Hardy Heron. Since this is a machine I actually use for work, I try not to goof around on it too much. But, you know, sometimes curiosity gets the better of me.
And that's what happens when you enter: "Sudo Apt-Get Install Chromium" on Hardy Heron, kids. Oopsycakes.
Now, since I don't want to spend -any- time making Chromium work on Hardy, since, you know, I have two Windows machines and now two Macintoshes right here on my desk where Google Chrome "Just works," I'm not going to bother installing Chromium. But if you still want to: UbuntuGeek has a pretty good tutorial. So does Starry Hope.












The Webkit Browser
"since I already have an excellent Web-Kit based browser called WebKit"?
You mean Safari?
No, I mean WebKit.
No, I mean WebKit. http://webkit.org/
