MOUNTAIN VIEW, California — Google Inc.'s new browser software is designed to work "invisibly" and will run any application that runs on Apple Inc.'s Safari Web browser, company officials said on Tuesday.
The company said the new Web browser, dubbed Google Chrome—a long-anticipated move to compete with Microsoft Corp, Mozilla Firefox and other browsers—would be available for users to download on Tuesday at 12 noon PDT/1900 GMT.
The public trial of the Google browser will be available in 43 languages in 100 countries, Sundar Pichai, Google's vice president of product management said at a news conference at the company's Mountain View, California headquarters.
"If you are Webmaster, and your site works in Apple Safari then it will work very well in Google Chrome," Pichai said.
Google Chrome relies on Apple's WebKit software for rendering Web pages, he said. It also has taken advantage of features of community developed browser Firefox from Mozilla Corp.
Google is a primary financial backer of Mozilla. Google officials said Chrome's code would be fully available for other developers to enhance.(Foxnews.com)
