Download Chrome's New Stable Release

by Andrew Ran Wong on January 25, 2010

ChromeAs a Chrome fan, I’ve definitely found great usage of the Chrome browser. If you are still trying to decide which one to choose in between Chrome and Firefox, read this article.

This morning, Google released its stable version of Chrome browser, called Chrome 4.0.249.78 officially.  I just installed it.  Having tested it for the past hour, I do feel this new version works better with all the extensions and bookmark sync.  If you have a hard time finding the right extensions, begin with these ones that I recommend.

Here are the new features included with this new version:

  • Extensions
  • Bookmark sync
  • Enhanced developer tools
  • HTML5: Notifications, Web Database, Local Storage, WebSockets, Ruby support
  • v8 performance improvements
  • Skia performance improvements
  • Full ACID3 pass, due to re-enabled remote font support (with added defense against bugs in operating system font libraries)
  • HTTP byte range support
  • New security feature: “Strict Transport Security” support
  • Experimental new anti-reflected-XSS feature called “XSS Auditor”

To try it out, download it here.  This version is only for Windows for now.  You can check out more information about it at the Google Chrome Blog.
