If you are wondering how to update Google Chrome to the latest version, listen, Google Chrome will it to automatically when you connect to the web. If you just started today’s browsing, you may close your browser once and then open it again, you should get those features ( update requires restart for changes to take effect ).

  • More Speed : New version of webkit will give you more speed, especially on javascripts. Google chrome team is concentrating on browsing speed a lot, and they give you more speed with each of their updates. Sounds good, and hope it will get better, and will bring more users for google chrome.

Google Launches Chrome Experiments

by Dinu

Google Chrome handles Javascripts at their best. Google is trying to take advantage of this ability, to push their product forward. With the release of the new website Chrome Experiments, Google presents Javascripts created by developers around the world. You can be one of them !!

What is Chrome Experiments ? The website says ….

We think JavaScript is awesome. We also think browsers are awesome. Indeed, when we talk about them, we say they are the cat’s meow – which is an American expression meaning AWESOME.

In light of these deeply held beliefs, we created this site to showcase cool experiments for both JavaScript and web browsers.

These experiments were created by designers and programmers from around the world. Their work is making the web faster, more fun, and more open – the same spirit in which we built Google Chrome.

Now, if you are a Javascript Developer, you can submit your entry here.

Nice try Google ! But Internet is not just Java… what you think ? Google Chrome has a lot more to do , before it can call itself a perfect browser. When there is a long list of missing features, trying to market the browser just for it’s Java functionality is not going to work
