In an effort to improve the Gmail experience for Gmailers everywhere,
the Guides will start posting "FYI" topics that we think are relevant
to you. We aim to post relevant tips, tricks, and items for discussion
as they arise. We hope you will find them useful!
Today, we're happy to announce the release of the beta version of a
new open-source browser: Google Chrome. We encourage you to download
it and give it a try (Windows-only at the moment).

Google Chrome is designed for speed, security, and stability with a
simple and intuitive user interface. You can find out more about other
Google Chrome features here: www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/features.html
Just a few of the cool Gmail features that come with Google Chrome
are:
- Application shortcuts: with this feature, people can place a
shortcut on their desktop to Gmail. With this, users can open Gmail in
its own window, one that looks like a regular Windows application
window. This is useful for those that don't want the clutter of the
address bar, bookmarks, etc. For more information:

- You can add "gmail.com" as a search engine in the address bar, thus
allowing you to search your emails directly from the address bar.
Instructions are here: http://www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?answer=95653
-- so, once set up, you can type "gmail to:me from:larry" into the
address bar. Once you press Enter, a Gmail window will open with the
search results already loaded.
