This is an update to my post at:  Post Of Aweful Wrongness.

In that post, I said that I <3 Google Chrome, but that I missed Prism, and that the only thing that kept me from becoming a full-time Chromite was the lack of the ability to split off a web application into it’s own window/process.

Yeah, I know, the difference between a bare, Prism-style window is the lack of tabs and … chrome.  Sure, it sounds silly, but having a dedicated window over on my Taskbar is awesome.

Well, I found exactly what I was looking for by accident, in the “folded paper” button:

It was right there in my face, but I never opened those buttons!  Haha.  Anyway, click that there menu item and you see:

Bam!  It OK and you get a new icon on your desktop.  Double click the icon and your favorite URL open up, not only in it’s own Chrome process with V8 Javascript, but in it’s own window without silly browser chrome with it’s own button in the taskbar.

I’m so happy!  Especially as my Firefox/Chrome set up was a bit wonky.
