What is Google Chrome, you might ask? Why, it's only the latest greatest new app from our friends at Google, that's what! Google has release a (wait for it... waaaaait for it...) Web Browser! That's right, Google has released their own web browser, Google Chrome. It's in Beta right now, which means it's still buggy (I couldn't login to my site, for instance, so I'm writing this through FireFox 3 (another great browser)). I'm sure that means hundreds or thousands of bug reports today, and a good solid patch come Friday or Monday.

Russian Gmail Video
Found this on the Gmail blog. Apparently their Russian office put this together :)
Worst Web Design Ever
Friend of mine passed this along via email. I think I have to agree with his assessment. While this may not be the worst, it's pretty bad.
By the way, don't follow the link if you're prone to epileptic seizures. Not sure if it could trigger one, but, I have my concerns...
The Best Cognac
Pretty sure what I tried was a Hennesy XO. Not bad :) It's got a burn though.
