Google Chrome gets Shinier
Google just updated their browser to version 2.0, with this version comes a speedier JavaScript engine, an updated webkit version and some minor UI overhaul. They also claim a 30% faster loading time in some cases.
It’s unfortunate that Google still lags behind when browser development features are concerned. This is a bummer for me, I love Chrome but I do all my web developement on Firefox, so it’s a bit counter intuitive to launch Chrome only for web browsing.
Head here for all the details.
