Google Chrome Log Parser

Google Chrome has been out for about a week and here is my first attempt to create a program that will parse out all the chrome logs and put together some useful reports. The program can be found here.

Just like Firefox, Chrome also stores their logs into a SQLite database. Some of these logs are very similar to the Firefox logs. One thing to note is that Chrome is not very consistent with which format they use for date/time. In some logs they use Unix Epoch time (Jan 1 1970) and in others they use Microsoft Epoch time (Jan 1 1601). Chrome also stores a thumbnail of web pages in these logs as well. These thumbnails are used when you fist start chrome to show you 9 pages you have visited. With the above log parser it will pull these thumbnails out and present them in the reports as well.

As I stated above this program is a work in progress and there is still more research to be done to make it a better. I just wanted to get it out to all you guys to start to play with it.

As always Questions/Comments/Suggestions.
