5Use the <code>chrome.experimental.webNavigation</code> module to recieve
6notifications about the status of navigations requests in-flight. This
7module is still very much experimental. For information on how to use
8experimental APIs, see the <a href="experimental.html">chrome.experimental.*

12<h2>A note about timestamps</h2>
13<p>
14It's important to note that some technical oddities in the OS's handling
15of distinct Chrome processes can cause the clock to be skewed between the
16browser itself and extension processes. That means that WebNavigation's events'
17<code>timeStamp</code> property is only guaranteed to be <i>internally</i>
18consistent. Comparing one event to another event will give you the correct
19offset between them, but comparing them to the current time inside the
20extension (via <code>(new Date()).getTime()</code>, for instance) might give
21unexpected results.
