Google Chrome Beta Update 2.0.174.0

I have been hooked to Google Chrome since its release 1. Brilliant browser IMO and one of the main reasons I have been keeping a close eye on the beta bits coming out from Google chrome team.

The recent update is something that is worth looking into. According to Google chrome blog some of the new changes include

  • Ability to remove thumbnails from New Tab Page (still in development)
  • Added “Undo Tab Close” and “New Tab” to the context menu on the tab bar.
  • It is no longer possible to cut or copy from a password text-field
  • It is no longer possible to cut or copy from a password text-field.
  • Ctrl+Shift+Arrow allows change in text direction in RTL UIs. Also now support Ctrl+Shift text alignment based on which side of the keyboard those keys are pressed.

Awesome work chrome team, specially on remove thumbnails from New Tab Page.

Google chrome is looking better and better with each passing day, it is fast and its performance is right up there!

If you are interested in trying out these new bits you can get more information on Chromium Developer Documentation.

Well done chrome team!!!
