Google Chrome Linux
I know, I am reporting this very late, for again, I cant miss this news, even though I am late. So, here it goes, if you are yet to read about this.
Google Chrome for Linux is finally ready for beta. Like the Windows version, it’s fast, secure, stable, simple, extensible, and embraces open standards like HTML5.
I have been using Google Chrome on Ubuntu, from the day one of the Development version release. It was fun, and recently I got flash and extensions working on it. So, beta release is not much of an excitement for me personally, but this marks another milestone in the Chrome’s Story
For those who waited for the release of Beta release, of Linux to try it, here is the download link. Enjoy and come back to give feedback as comments !
Do not worry about the beta label on google products, ok ? they keep things on beta for a looooong time. So, start using Chrome for Linux today.
Chrome OS Menu
Okay, here it is, two clicks, and you have the Chrome OS application menu on Google Chrome browser.
1. Open http://welcome-cros.appspot.com/menu on Google Chrome
2. Right click on the tab, and selsect “Pin Tab”
If you remember the Chrome OS demo video, the application menu was the most important part of Chrome OS. You will get this functionality on your normal Chrome browser with just two mouse clicks. So, you have most of what Chrome OS does,  provided Google has no hidden surprises for Google Chrome when it is out in the market.
But for now, Click Click ! and enjoy !!

Yes, it’s almost there. Google Chrome themes official themes gallery page is being set up. We will see it going online very soon. I got really excited when I saw this news on Techcrunch. Why ? you know that I love everything about Google Chrome, right ?
Techcrunch says that they found the theme gallery while deleting some thumbnails from the new sexy new tab page. Well, I did try that on Windows XP, Windows 7 and Ubuntu, and I can also confirm that this is true. So, What’s the URl where you find this new theme gallery for Chrome ? Go here. You will see a 404 not found page there now. But, with the next dev update or stable update, you can see the gallery live.
Until now, installing new theme or changing to the default one was really tough. You should download theme theme file, and place it inside a particular folder, and then try to change it etc. But, when the new theme gallery is live, you will see new themes being installed and uninstalled in few mouse clicks. Plus, you get a single web page to browse a large themes database.
So, wait for the next news from me, when everything is ready, and live. Happy Google Chrome Hours for you all !!
