New Google Chrome browser beta due out in a few days
Google will soon begin seeding a third beta version of its Chrome Web browser, a release that fixes up bugs, improves performance, and shores up security weaknesses. Chrome is Google’s foray into browsers that’s supposedly faster and more flexible than IE. Many say over time, it could supplant IE, but it still needs a good amount of polish.
Features in the new version include: better performance for plug-ins such as Flash and Silverlight; fewer crashes, support for scrolling with a touchpad, and better performance for people who browse the Web through a proxy.
More details about the new update and improvements here: Link
This product could be an essential part of Google’s strategy with Android going forward, so we’ll keep an eye on it as it develops.
