Google Wants Faster Web With Page Speed Service


Google has launched a service that grabs your website, translates it for optimum performance, and then spits it back out at unknowing web surfers.

Thursday Google engineering manager Ram Ramani announced the launch of its new Page Speed Service which promises to speed up page loads. The launch follows Google's Page Speed browser extension released two years ago and the Page Speed Online API released earlier this year. Google also released an Apache module last year that automatically rewrote web pages to make viewing faster.
