Earlier this week, the Chromium browser's bookmark manager moved from a separate native app window to a new tab inside browser itself (a la Opera). The streamlined manager has quickly made its way to Chrome, landing today in the developer channel build. The bookmark manager in-a-tab feels is a much more logic implementation on tabbed browsers, and it's been a feature of Opera for quite some ...

Google's Chrome OS is due some time later this year, and the browser-based OS is going to be quite different from what you're used to.

At any rate, one of the most useful features of the Windows command line, which I'm sure many of you use very day, is tab completion.
