Download WebGL supported Google Chrome 9

Admin — Fri, 04 Feb 2011 22:45:26 +0000

Chrome 9 implements support for WebGL, a hardware acceleration technology designed to work with the new HTML5 Canvas element. Hardware acceleration is critical to making browser-based games and other graphics-intensive applications competitive with the performance of desktop applications.

The final build is 9.0.597.84 and available through Stable channel.

Chrome updates itself automatically, making it unnecessary to install new versions. IE 9 offers auto-updating, but it won’t convert IE 6, 7, or 8 installations into IE 9.

Google initially declared that they will be releasing by almost the end of year 2011 but Reports now suggest that the OS will not arrive until 2011.

Engadget reports that Acer’s Jim Wong confirmed that the company would not be launching a Chrome OS netbook until 2011. Wong said this would be in parallel with the “consumer launch” of the OS next year.

Acc to Wikipedia :

Chrome OS will not be available as a download to run and install. Instead, the operating system will only ship on specific hardware from Google’s manufacturing partners. The user interface takes a minimalist approach, resembling that of the Chrome web browser. Because the only application on the device will be a browser incorporating a media player,Google Chrome OS is aimed at users who spend most of their computer time on the Internet

Top Google Chrome Extensions

Admin — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 23:19:16 +0000

Google launched an extensions gallery for Google Chrome and added support for extensions in Chrome 4 Beta (Windows and Linux only). Google also released the first beta version of Chrome for Mac, but it doesn’t have support for extensions.
The extensions gallery includes 500 extensions. You shouldn’t expect to find complex extensions, toolbars, download managers: Chrome extensions are lightweight, they have a minimalistic interface and few of them are customizable.

Extensions Gain More Steam As Shareaholic Is Chrome-Ready

Admin — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 21:32:41 +0000

Google has begun its big push to bring extension support to its Chrome web browser. Currently, it’s accepting extensions from developers that it will be placing in some sort of gallery to launch at a later date. Last week, we showed the nice, new Aviary extension for Chrome. Today, we get very popular Firefox extension that is now Chrome-ready, Shareaholic.

As we noted in September when Shareaholic closed its seed funding, the extension has surpassed over 1 million downloads for Firefox. And for good reason: It makes sharing on just about every service on the web as simple as two-clicks. The new Chrome version works pretty much exactly the same as the Firefox version; you click the button and you are presented with a drop down list of social options for sharing. A shortened URL is automatically made for the webpage you are sending.

If you have a Shareaholic account you can set options for the extension including picking and choosing which social networks to include in the drop-down. You can also pick which URL shortener to use (Bit.ly is the default one). But you don’t have to have a Shareaholic account to use the extension, it will simply use the default sharing options (such as Twitter, Facebook, Delicious, etc) to populate your drop-down.

The extension is fast, and thankfully, does not seem to slow down Chrome at all. Obviously, extension support is a big key to Chrome competing with Firefox, the browser known for its extensions. And this simple extension support also gives Chrome a huge leg up over the top dog of the browsers, Microsoft’s Internet Explorer.

Shareaholic’s extension, which is technically still is beta, is accessible through this direct link. Once you download it, simply drag it into your Chrome (version 4.0 or greater, which is still testing) browser window to install it. One note: It’s not working correctly with the latest dev build of Chrome for Mac, but it is working in the latest Chromium builds for Mac. Chrome for Mac’s beta launch is imminent, but Google has stated that extension support will not be in that build right away.

Shareaholic noted that the team at Google helped them port the extension over to Chrome. Clearly, they want to have the best extensions available early.

Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) Needs to Fly Like Chrome

Admin — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 21:26:22 +0000

There’s no way around it, Microsoft needs to make the next iteration of Internet Explorer, IE9, as fast as Google Chrome, if not even faster. As a general rule, Google Chrome evolves at a much faster pace compared to Internet Explorer, after all, the Mountain View-based search giant has gone through three major versions of its open source browser in a little over a year since v1.0 was initially introduced, and it is laboring to finalize v4.0. It’s taken Microsoft since the end of 2006 to produce Internet Explorer 8 in March 2008, and in this regard, IE’s performance, features, capabilities will always suffer from a handicap compared to rival products, simply because of he pace at which the company delivers major versions of its browser.
The speed at which Google and Mozilla swap major versions of Chrome and Firefox will undoubtedly contribute to the generalized perception that Microsoft is constantly playing catch-up with IE, rather than driving innovation. Fact is that with IE8, the Redmond company focused very little on driving JavaScript performance for the browser. The software giant had its reasons, supported by the argument that JS is only one aspect of a browser’s performance, in some scenarios down right insignificant, and by proof that IE was loading pages on par with… (read more)
