...Chrome looks like a "best of" browser, incorporating - and in some cases, improving upon - a few of the most popular features of its competitors. Like Firefox's "awesome bar," Chrome's search blank keeps track of keywords in a user's previous visit, allowing one to type in, say, "baseball" and pull up any Web pages he'd visited recently that pertain to that sport. Also like Firefox, Chrome supports tabs as a way to open and keep track of multiple windows, though Chrome puts the tabs above the search blank rather than below it. There's also a privacy...

...earlier era, the author would have been a pollster. Now, as the general manager of global research at Hitwise, an online intelligence firm, he sifts through a database that reveals what more than 10 million Internet users do every day.

...Give it a try, you will love it. Don't follow rules, make them!" the instructions on the new Wordscraper game slyly exhort. Once a user installs the application (which, coincidentally, looks like a big, blank Scrabble board), he can create his own word game by adding special "double word" and "triple letter" tiles in any configuration he chooses. If a user happens to create a board that's identical to the original Scrabble and saves that setting - a feat that takes less than two minutes - he can elect to save the template and reuse it over and over again...
