I personally got bought by the first concept introduced in the book and am eager to abandon Fluid to run our corporate web-apps without risking to loose data while some other site is open in another tab.

If you are not familiar with Fluid, you can use it to create site specific browsers to run each of your favorite Web Apps as a separate Cocoa desktop application. “Fluid gives any Web App a home on your Mac OS X desktop complete with Dock icon, standard menu bar, logical separation from your other web browsing activity, and many other goodies.”

Honestly, the logical separation is not of any importance to me. I really just want the web apps I need to keep open not to be killed by some Flash or JS misbehaving in any site I get through. Chrome achieves pretty much this at OS level, getting a separate process for each browser tab.

Unfortunately the Mac version hasn’t been released yet. Anyway, I think the percentage of users testing the new Google browser, released on tuesday, will grow pretty quickly.

Hey guys, this means we will need to start testing our products against yet another browser pretty soon…
