Google continued the rumors that it might be launching a browser
when it hired Ben Goodger, the lead programmer of the Firefox browser. TechNewsWorld.com reports that Google achknowledged hiring Goodger and said the "move was based on his solid engineering skills and not necessarily his browser-building experience." The rumored Google browser has been dubbed the gbrowser by bloggers and
industry insiders speculating on a possible launch. Google has even registered the gbrowser.com domain name. InternetWeek.com
reports that Google has since hired a second coder from Mozilla, which
developed Firefox. Slashdot reports that there is also speculation that
Google is contemplating the launch of an operating system, or Google OS.
On a seperate note, News.com reports the all-doing Google has been given rights as a domain registrar.
