Google Web Publishing
Google's Picasa, Hello and Blogger represent most of the basic tools to publish on the web. They only lack a web browser, and that seems to be next on the list according to a New York Post article. Jason Kottke has talked at length about what he calls the Google Operating System, where Google's range of web apps expand to represent a remote OS, this is maybe one more step along that path.
Given Google's reach into the world of the common user you can expect any browser it builds to erode Internet Explorer's >95% share of the browser market. That's a good thing assuming the Google browser interprets W3C specs properly.
If you're looking for a good, no, great browser, Mozilla Firefox is your friend. Tabbed browing, pop-up blocking, live bookmarks, smarter search - and all in a user friendly package that's a cinch to install. Install Firefox, you won't regret it!

More!? OK then, but I can't help feeling that this will be a disappointment to you.

Does exactly what it says on the (comic book) tin. Loved it. - Little Miss Sunshine

Very funny, disturbing (the beauty pageant) and completely messed up -- but in a good way. - Laputa: Castle in the Sky†
Story great, characterization a little on the weak side -- though the big robots are cool. - Porco Rosso
†
Stylish, funny, exciting. - Grave of the Fireflies†
Very sad, which was a little unexpected since I didn't know much about it before watching it. Can be a little too slow in places though, otherwise it's very good. - Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind†
The story can get a little dense at times what with the various factions, but still really enjoyable, inventive and engaging. - X-Men: The Last Stand

Opportunity, talent, money - all blown. Over 3 films X-Men has hinted of something great that could have been, this last one says "No, sorry - not going to happen". Bah.
