The features of Google Chrome for Mac

For more details on this beta release of Google Chrome for Mac, read on in the Google Mac blog:

73,804 lines of Mac-specific code and 29 developer builds later, we're excited to finally release Google Chrome for Mac in beta. We took a hefty dose of goodness from the Windows version to build a fast, polished browser for Mac -- with features such as the Omnibox (where you can both search and type in addresses), themes from artists, and most importantly, speed. Try downloading Google Chrome for Mac and see what you think.

We also took great care to make Google Chrome a native application for Mac. For example, we integrated the Keychain into Google Chrome for Mac, and incorporated Mac-style animations when you open the Bookmarks bar.

You can watch this video from one of Google engineers, Mike Pinkerton:

Not very useful at the moment: without the extensions, Chrome is roughly a clone of Safari. Same spirit (fast, lightweigt, ...).

However Chromium is available on Mac and more recent than Chrome.
In particular it supports extensions. That's what I use now.
