It appears that Google scored a PR success with their Chrome browser. In short, the promise is a web experience where web pages are allowed to behave more like desktop applications. This is done by boosting the abilities of common web pages in terms of performance, while also allowing 'plugins' to enrich the user experience of certain other pages. As it seems, the announcement shot at the heads of people who've been holding their breath for the fabled Google Operating System. However in the following text I will demonstrate that Chrome [based on what we are allowed to know] puts strain on the Designer and Developer communities, is not innovative (save for one feature), and copies ideas liberally from Google's worst enemy.

This article is badly written. The logic is completely flawed. Aligning a certain number of points the AUTHOR doesn't like, doesn't make it a general rule for the others. Even with a dump of different ideas, the article facts are scarce and even wrong on some place : the comic wasn't create by Blogoscoped, only "promoted".
I believe the article would have been much better if it would have concentrate on one subject, like "what ideas does Chrome bring and what ideas are recycled from the others".
