Mountain View (CA) – Being Google has its advantages, of course – for example the ability to completely remove certain pages that accidentally went online, were stored in the search engine’s cache and may reveal more information than Google intended to.
Google’s search engine cache has become one of the most valuable research features of Google Search, since it enables users to travel back in time and find pages that may not exist anymore. Dell has made its experiences in the past with unannounced products that were apparently put online for test purposes and got indexed before the company removed such pages again. Or, remember the recent controversy about the age of Chinese gymnasts whose published age on cached pages did not match their currently published age?
A similar hiccup apparently happened to Google itself when it briefly published the download of the new Chrome browser at http://gears.google.com/chrome/?hl=en exactly at 12:00 am PST, earlier today. A search for “Google Chrome” and “Google Gears” points to a cached page, which, however, is not available anymore. It may have been an intentional leak or an accidental leak, but the fact that the page has been removed from the search engine cache as quickly as it was published may raise eye browse here and there.
Anyone who wants to see a preview of the browser can jump over to Google Blogoscoped, which managed to grab a few screenshots of the browser, before the page disappeared. These images in fact reveal that Chrome will have a user interface that is reduced to a minimum and focus on an “omnibar” search auto-completion feature, a homepage that has tiles of nine homepages, applications that are usually accessed through the browser, but can be added as applications to the Windows Start Menu as well as anonymous browsing support and a Download manager.
