On the test server amongst a lot of other new goodies, you can preview the new in game browser.
As you can see, it actually displays this blog exactly like it should 
. I assume they took some rendering engine like webkit and used that to pull it off. The new blog on cosmos is interesting. Cosmos doesn’t interest me all that much, but the new email client will be such a blessing. The current one is so horrible, it’s not even funny any more 
.
UPDATE : Link to technical devblog on the new browser.
UPDATE2: The new browser presentation @ fanfest : EveOnlineFan Blog

It’s the Chromium library using a custom rendering rendering engine to deliver it to the Trinity engine already built into EVE.
