Faster more stable Google Chrome
Friday, May 22nd, 2009 | News Release | No Comments
It’s been about 8 months since google launched Google Chrome. Aside from exclaiming how fast it is, users have been sending us lots of feedback and feature requests. We’ve increased our focus on speed and also added some of the most-requested features. Some of these improvements made it into the Beta version that we first released in March, and we’ve continued to improve the Beta since then. Today, we are moving the Beta version to the stable channel for all users to enjoy.
Here are some improvements that you’ll notice right away:
Improved New Tab Page: The most requested feature from users was the ability to remove thumbnails from the New Tab page. Now you can finally hide that embarrassing gossip blog from the Most Visited section.
Full Screen Mode: If you’ve ever given a presentation or watched a large video using Google Chrome, you might have wished you could use every last pixel on your screen for the content. Now you can hide the title bar and the rest of the browser window by hitting F11 or selecting the option in the Tools menu.
Form Autofill: Filling out your information in forms over and over again can be tedious. Form autofill helps by showing information you’ve previously entered into the same form fields automatically. If at any point you want to clear out your information, that’s easy to do from the Tools menu.
And here are some improvements that aren’t immediately visible, but will make web browsing with Google Chrome more enjoyable:
Increased Stability: Google Chrome is more stable than ever–we have fixed over 300 bugs that caused crashes since launch.
Increased Speed: Making the web faster continues to be our main area of focus. Thanks to a new version of WebKit and an update to our JavaScript engine, V8, interactive web pages will run even faster. We’ve also made sure that JavaScript keeps running fast even when you have lots of tabs open. Try opening a bunch of web applications and then running your favorite benchmark. You can read more about V8 in our JavaScript scalability post on the Chromium blog.

Chrome Beta release: 0.2.149.29 (Security Updates)
Tuesday, September 16th, 2008 | News Release | 1 Comment
Google Chrome version 0.2.149.29 was released on 5 September 2008, and all users are being automatically updated. Automatic updates are a key security feature in helping to ensure the safety of Google Chrome users.
This is a security and bug fix update, with no new functionality.
Security Updates:
* Fix a buffer overflow vulnerability in handling long filenames that display in the Save As… dialog. This is a critical risk that could lead to execution of arbitrary code.
o Issue: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1414
o Fix: http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome?view=rev&revision=1766
* Fix a buffer overflow vulnerability in handling link targets displayed in the status area when the user hovers over a link. This is a critical risk that could lead to execution of arbitrary code.
o Issue: reported internally to Google
o Fix: http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome?view=rev&revision=1797
* Fix an out-of-bounds memory read when parsing URLs ending with :%. This is a low risk that can be used to crash the entire browser, possibly causing loss of data in the current session.

o Fix: http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome?view=rev&revision=1760

Is Google Chrome really better than Firefox and IE?
Tuesday, September 16th, 2008 | News Release | 1 Comment
Chrome is the new browser on the internet from Google and it is ready to take on the Microsoft Internet Explorer and Firefox! The rendering engine for Chrome is Webkit. Google has created a new V8 Javascript engine for processing the Javascript in the web pages. This is excitingly fast when compared to the existing browsers. If the web page uses a lot of Javascript code then you are sure to experience the speed with which Chrome works!
There are many new features in Google Chrome browser that a user would like to try on. One of the exciting feature is the Incognito mode of browsing. This mode of browsing is like a stealth mode where the records of your browsing are not saved by the browser. For anonymous browsing you can use this Incognito mode. However the bookmarks you save are saved.
The other cool features is the way we can add a new tab. We find a ‘+’ image near the last tab you have opened. Clicking this opens new tab. The placement of this ‘+’ is better that enables you to open new tabs quickly. The tabs are arranged on the top of the window. You can even drag a new window to the browser to add it as a new tab and even drag tab out of the browser window to create a new window!
The start page of Chrome shows the most visited websites with thumbnail images. You can click on these images to go to that website.
A new window to open the web applications is available in Google chrome. Since a web application might need more space in the browser, this new window for opening web application is of more use. From this window you can also open the usual Google Chrome browser window.
The address bar of the Google Chrome now comes with a lot of features to enable browsing a pleasure. As you type the website URL in the browser, you get a drop down of the matches from you bookmark. Once you press Enter or the Arrow in the address bar, the arrow key turns into an ‘x’, so that you can click that to stop loading! A star symbol by the side of the address bar helps you to bookmark the websites easily.
When you are visiting any secured pages, the address bars turns to gold color and you also see a lock symbol in the address bar.
With all these new cool features and the speed with which is works, it is no wonder that Chrome is set to take on the giant Internet Explorer!
You can to try it to see it !!! What are you waiting for?
