At $35, Chromecast Audio is an affordable way to connect your speakers via WiFi so you can stream tons of popular apps including Spotify, Pandora, and Google Play Music from anywhere in your home. Today we’re starting to add two new features to the latest software update to elevate your listening experience.<br /> <br /> <h3> Introducing Hi-Res audio support</h3> Close your eyes and imagine the musician is playing in the room. Today we’re rolling out high-resolution audio support, which gives you even higher quality music playback using Chromecast Audio. With support of up to 96KHz/24bit lossless audio playback, you can enjoy higher-than-CD-quality audio on your existing high fidelity audio equipment.<br /> <br /> <h3> Blast the same song in every room</h3> Now you can easily fill every room in your home—bedroom, kitchen, living room, or wherever you have a Chromecast Audio connected—with synchronous music. Multi-room lets you group Chromecast Audio devices together so you can listen to the same song on multiple speakers.<br /> <br /> Setup is simple. Connect and setup a Chromecast Audio device for each of your speakers, then use the latest <a href="http://chromecast.com/setup">Chromecast app</a> to create a group. You can cast to the group the exact same way you would cast to a single Chromecast device. Since anyone with a phone can easily cast without pairing, you can sync your home speakers together and invite your friends to be the DJ.<br /> <br /> So grab your hairbrush microphone, dust off your tennis racket guitar, and jam out to your favorite tunes at amazing quality and in every room of your house.<br /> <br /> Posted by Tomer Shekel, Product Manager and Patron of Loud Music <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </script> <noscript> A couple of months ago we launched <a href="//www.google.com/chromecast/speakers/">Chromecast Audio</a> to provide an easy way to stream your favorite tunes from your phone, tablet, or laptop to your existing speakers.

Since anyone with a phone can easily cast without pairing, you can sync your home speakers together and invite your friends to be the DJ.<br /> <br /> So grab your hairbrush microphone, dust off your tennis racket guitar, and jam out to your favorite tunes at amazing quality and in every room of your house.<br /> <br /> Posted by Tomer Shekel, Product Manager and Patron of Loud Music <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Google Chrome Blog:Even more to love about Chromecast Audio&url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html&via=googlechrome'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='0' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html' data-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/search/label/Chrome%20Blog' rel='tag'> Chrome Blog </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='4620118850729518537' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/11/a-new-way-to-save-data-with-chrome-on.html' itemprop='url' title='A new way to save data with Chrome on Android '> A new way to save data with Chrome on Android </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Monday, November 30, 2015 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> Accessing mobile websites on a slow connection can be frustrating: it can eat up your data, and it takes work to keep track of your usage.

Those frames are recorded by a video camera, and then displayed at regular intervals by your screen so you can see it as a smooth video. A typical video is recorded at 30 frames per second, and a typical screen displays at 60 times a second—so ideally, one frame is on the screen for two refreshes, and you see smooth video. Often that doesn’t happen—many videos aren’t recorded at exactly 30 frames per second, and many screens don’t display at exactly 60 times per second—which leads to inconsistent or jerky video. We’ve been working to take account of these variations in Chrome, so we can more consistently hit two frames per refresh. That means your video looks smoother.</div> <div> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiTzCpav0Q4LWx0D5Am7XxULLth3uxFdl7eJL84sQywG19awCpNmCQ5DJwrWlHQIUJKKNt1kJnI1DRwCSVSbC1iHh_CuYYTU4qIUeS4gSL0EN3fgdUVan4GplizKJXttQzd2-ZRzX_yaYa/s1600/20151028+smoothness+68.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="141" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiTzCpav0Q4LWx0D5Am7XxULLth3uxFdl7eJL84sQywG19awCpNmCQ5DJwrWlHQIUJKKNt1kJnI1DRwCSVSbC1iHh_CuYYTU4qIUeS4gSL0EN3fgdUVan4GplizKJXttQzd2-ZRzX_yaYa/s400/20151028+smoothness+68.png" width="400" /></a></div> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <i>In this example, 32% of video frames are displayed for the wrong length of time and 5 frames never display.  </i></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHea44-O9V2bLS4d-MxvaQusYIFlB_hSgixHaSTI9U7CTHPyAAtLdoxIWvpJ6Ad4lH7T_SwBgmZ3TWfvBgyVyRLR6YMhoFDDLfxrDMV9B7iU7drcPHOvXDIv-ec1KkmajMFEbUoPuv875P/s1600/20151028+smoothness+99.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="145" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHea44-O9V2bLS4d-MxvaQusYIFlB_hSgixHaSTI9U7CTHPyAAtLdoxIWvpJ6Ad4lH7T_SwBgmZ3TWfvBgyVyRLR6YMhoFDDLfxrDMV9B7iU7drcPHOvXDIv-ec1KkmajMFEbUoPuv875P/s400/20151028+smoothness+99.png" width="400" /></a></div> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <i>Now almost all frames are shown at regular intervals, and every frame is displayed.</i></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div> Your connection may not always be perfect, so we helped build a new open standard that your video provider uses to intelligently adjust video settings—and if your Internet connection speed dips, video quality will adjust without your input.

Here’s just a few:</div> <br /> <b>It’s fall premiere season-- catch up on your favorites. </b>Chromecast can help you burn through the last season of Homeland on Showtime before the next season premieres in October. Or choose from over 200,000 TV shows and movies from favorites like Netflix, Google Play Movies, HBO Now, Hulu, CW Seed, WatchABC and WatchDisney, with SlingTV coming soon.<br /> <br /> <b>Never miss your favorite sports game. </b>With recently-launched NFL Sunday Ticket by DirecTV, you can cast live games (even those that aren’t nationally televised) to the TV. Check the scores and stats from the mobile app while watching the action live on TV. Chromecast works with WatchESPN, MLB At Bat, CBS Sports and many others. NBA, NHL and BTN2Go are coming soon.<br /> <br /> <b>Score a last-minute party playlist. </b>You’re throwing a party and forgot to make a playlist. With Chromecast Audio, anyone in your house (and on your WiFi) can DJ using their phone to cast to the speakers—no additional pairing or set up necessary. Choose from over 35 million songs on Spotify, Google Play Music, Pandora iHeartRadio and more.<br /> <br /> <b>Give game night a twist. </b>Turn your TV screen into a race track, golf course or dance floor. Chromecast takes popular mobile games and brings them to the big screen. Anyone can join in, using their Android phone or iPhone® as a game controller. Soon, we’ll be adding Angry Birds Go!, WGT Golf, and Driver Speedboat Paradise. Available now are classics like Just Dance Now, Catch Phrase Blitz, and Scrabble Blitz.<br /> <br /> <b>Relive the weekend. </b>Before you completely dive back into the real world on Monday morning, share your weekend memories. With Google Photos, cast any picture from your albums to the TV for a bigger picture, while using your phone to swipe to the next one.<br /> <br /> You can also turn your TV screen into a picture frame filled with photos from Facebook, Google Photos, Flickr, Getty Images, 500px and more. Visit chromecast.com/backdrop to find out more.<br /> <br /> <b>Cast the morning news. </b>With Chromecast Audio, cast talk shows like NPR One to your bedroom speakers while you're getting ready for work.<br /> <br /> <b>Enjoy some sweet offers. </b>Once you’ve purchased and set up a Chromecast, you’ll find a few special offers waiting for you:<br /> <ul> <li>90 days of free music from Google Play</li> <li>free 1 month trial of CBS All Access</li> <li>free movie rental from Google Play</li> <li>three-month free trial of Rhapsody</li> <li>30 days of access to Crunchyroll Premium.</li> </ul> <br /> Visit chromecast.com/offers* to learn more.<br /> <br /> Your phone is bursting with entertainment.

Here is a quick snapshot.</div> <div> <ul> <li><b>Software</b>: It all starts with software that infects your browser. We discovered more than 50,000 browser extensions and more than 34,000 software applications that took control of users’ browsers and injected ads. Upwards of 30% of these packages were outright malicious and simultaneously stole account credentials, hijacked search queries, and reported a user’s activity to third parties for tracking. In total, we found 5.1% of page views on Windows and 3.4% of page views on Mac that showed tell-tale signs of ad injection software.</li> <li><b>Distribution</b>: Next, this software is distributed by a network of affiliates that work to drive as many installs as possible via tactics like: marketing, bundling applications with popular downloads, outright malware distribution, and large social advertising campaigns.  Affiliates are paid a commision whenever a user clicks on an injected ad. We found about 1,000 of these businesses, including Crossrider, Shopper Pro, and Netcrawl, that use at least one of these tactics.</li> <li><b>Injection Libraries</b>: Ad injectors source their ads from about 25 businesses that provide ‘injection libraries’. Superfish and Jollywallet are by far the most popular of these, appearing in 3.9% and 2.4% of Google views, respectively. These companies manage advertising relationships with a handful of ad networks and shopping programs and decide which ads to display to users. Whenever a user clicks on an ad or purchases a product, these companies make a profit, a fraction of which they share with affiliates.</li> <li><b>Ads</b>: The ad injection ecosystem profits from more than 3,000 victimized advertisers—including major retailers like Sears, Walmart, Target, Ebay—who unwittingly pay for traffic to their sites. Because advertisers are generally only able to measure the final click that drives traffic to their sites, they’re often unaware of many preceding twists and turns, and don’t know they are receiving traffic via unwanted software and malware. Ads originate from ad networks that translate unwanted software installations into profit: 77% of all injected ads go through one of three ad networks—dealtime.com, pricegrabber.com, and bizrate.com.

We strongly encourage all members of the ads ecosystem to review their policies and practices so we can make real improvement on this issue.</div> </div> <br /> <span class="post-author">Posted by Kurt Thomas, Spam & Abuse Research</span> <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/05/new-research-ad-injection-economy.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Google Chrome Blog:New Research: The Ad Injection Economy&url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/05/new-research-ad-injection-economy.html&via=googlechrome'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/05/new-research-ad-injection-economy.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='0' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/05/new-research-ad-injection-economy.html' data-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/05/new-research-ad-injection-economy.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/05/new-research-ad-injection-economy.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/search/label/Chrome%20Blog' rel='tag'> Chrome Blog </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='4583405996537165302' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/04/search-and-browse-faster-with-latest.html' itemprop='url' title='Search and browse faster with the latest Chrome for iOS'> Search and browse faster with the latest Chrome for iOS </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Thursday, April 16, 2015 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> Many people whip out their phones throughout the day to check something quickly—get a weather forecast, check what time the Giants game is, find out who guest starred on Mad Men last night.

Since we <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/05/new-kind-of-computer-chromebook.html">introduced</a> them four years ago, Chromebooks have made computers faster, simpler, and more secure, while eliminating everyday hassles like waiting for your computer to boot up, having to constantly charge it, and remembering to install software updates. And a lot of people love them—Chromebooks were the best selling laptops on Amazon last holiday season, and teachers and students made them the #1 device in schools last year.<br /> <br /> <h3> Quality and affordability</h3> You shouldn't have to choose between a computer that performs well and one that you can afford. Today we're introducing two new devices that meet both criteria: the Haier Chromebook 11 (available at <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00V3DYVLM">Amazon</a>) and the Hisense Chromebook (available at <a href="http://www.walmart.com/ip/44389793">Walmart</a>). These new Chromebooks are fast, lightweight, have long-life batteries and are available for pre-order today for $149. <br /> <br /> They join new partners like TRUE, XOLO, and Nexian and our existing range of <a href="//google.com/chromebook">Chrome devices</a> —ranging from 11.6” Chromebooks for $199 to 15” Chromebooks for $499 rolling out over the next few months from partners like Acer, AOPEN, ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo and LG.<br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/lHjNxscOY_M" width="560"></iframe> </div> <h3 style="text-align: left;"> A Chromebook you’ll flip for</h3> We’re also excited about the ASUS Chromebook Flip. A premium, all-metal convertible, it’s ultra-portable—just 15mm thin and weighing less than two pounds. The Chromebook Flip has a great keyboard and a touch screen for immersive experiences like gaming and educational apps. It will be available later this spring for $249.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfpxQw8e2orAhrF_oyeG0McscbDNlCqYKtzU9DnM6lpVQyRQOKUno4B9wpROhhRaYajSGARRPJn-G4WxuPiZoxD3NcIRPlpAQUPnDPdP8_QDRRoESZ8Udk8HjPDCQREBjeWff_RBbC1oaa/s1600/Open_AsusChromebook10_Silver_1000.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfpxQw8e2orAhrF_oyeG0McscbDNlCqYKtzU9DnM6lpVQyRQOKUno4B9wpROhhRaYajSGARRPJn-G4WxuPiZoxD3NcIRPlpAQUPnDPdP8_QDRRoESZ8Udk8HjPDCQREBjeWff_RBbC1oaa/s1600/Open_AsusChromebook10_Silver_1000.png" width="400" /></a></div> <h3> A little bit more...</h3> This summer, ASUS will launch a new type of Chrome device: the Chromebit. Smaller than a candy bar, the Chromebit is a full computer that will be available for less than $100. By simply plugging this device into any display, you can turn it into a computer.

And a lot of people love them—Chromebooks were the best selling laptops on Amazon last holiday season, and teachers and students made them the #1 device in schools last year.<br /> <br /> <h3> Quality and affordability</h3> You shouldn't have to choose between a computer that performs well and one that you can afford. Today we're introducing two new devices that meet both criteria: the Haier Chromebook 11 (available at <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00V3DYVLM">Amazon</a>) and the Hisense Chromebook (available at <a href="http://www.walmart.com/ip/44389793">Walmart</a>). These new Chromebooks are fast, lightweight, have long-life batteries and are available for pre-order today for $149. <br /> <br /> They join new partners like TRUE, XOLO, and Nexian and our existing range of <a href="//google.com/chromebook">Chrome devices</a> —ranging from 11.6” Chromebooks for $199 to 15” Chromebooks for $499 rolling out over the next few months from partners like Acer, AOPEN, ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo and LG.<br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/lHjNxscOY_M" width="560"></iframe> </div> <h3 style="text-align: left;"> A Chromebook you’ll flip for</h3> We’re also excited about the ASUS Chromebook Flip. A premium, all-metal convertible, it’s ultra-portable—just 15mm thin and weighing less than two pounds. The Chromebook Flip has a great keyboard and a touch screen for immersive experiences like gaming and educational apps. It will be available later this spring for $249.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfpxQw8e2orAhrF_oyeG0McscbDNlCqYKtzU9DnM6lpVQyRQOKUno4B9wpROhhRaYajSGARRPJn-G4WxuPiZoxD3NcIRPlpAQUPnDPdP8_QDRRoESZ8Udk8HjPDCQREBjeWff_RBbC1oaa/s1600/Open_AsusChromebook10_Silver_1000.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfpxQw8e2orAhrF_oyeG0McscbDNlCqYKtzU9DnM6lpVQyRQOKUno4B9wpROhhRaYajSGARRPJn-G4WxuPiZoxD3NcIRPlpAQUPnDPdP8_QDRRoESZ8Udk8HjPDCQREBjeWff_RBbC1oaa/s1600/Open_AsusChromebook10_Silver_1000.png" width="400" /></a></div> <h3> A little bit more...</h3> This summer, ASUS will launch a new type of Chrome device: the Chromebit. Smaller than a candy bar, the Chromebit is a full computer that will be available for less than $100. By simply plugging this device into any display, you can turn it into a computer. It’s the perfect upgrade for an existing desktop and will be really useful for schools and businesses.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhViEfGTDavI8UzRIMAz8Krj2g19wsIcceIoUkspomc2HxhjT89heFyjgAINa0K7-eI5bt4lkRzl7ohyOX3verQFQlUVv36Jl5s0F1Zz4VKk8LDeYLysb2uu1s3u35O6V6MaPmjuPNs9jlK/s1600/Group_Asus_Chromestick_V1+(1)_1000.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="201" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhViEfGTDavI8UzRIMAz8Krj2g19wsIcceIoUkspomc2HxhjT89heFyjgAINa0K7-eI5bt4lkRzl7ohyOX3verQFQlUVv36Jl5s0F1Zz4VKk8LDeYLysb2uu1s3u35O6V6MaPmjuPNs9jlK/s1600/Group_Asus_Chromestick_V1+(1)_1000.png" width="320" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> So whether you’re looking for a smaller Chrome device that packs a big punch or a laptop that can do back bends, there’s a Chromebook for you...and for everyone else, too.<br /> <br /> Posted by Katie Roberts-Hoffman, Engineer and ARM Wrestler <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/03/more-chromebooks-for-everyone.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Google Chrome Blog:More Chromebooks, for everyone&url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/03/more-chromebooks-for-everyone.html&via=googlechrome'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/03/more-chromebooks-for-everyone.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='0' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/03/more-chromebooks-for-everyone.html' data-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/03/more-chromebooks-for-everyone.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/03/more-chromebooks-for-everyone.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/search/label/Chrome%20Blog' rel='tag'> Chrome Blog </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='2897009872449919166' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/03/for-whats-next-new-chromebook-pixel-and.html' itemprop='url' title='For What’s Next: the new Chromebook Pixel and USB Type-C'> For What’s Next: the new Chromebook Pixel and USB Type-C </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Wednesday, March 11, 2015 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> Today we’re introducing an updated, more powerful <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2015/03/meet-updated-chromebook-pixel-and-new.html">Chromebook Pixel</a>.

Micro-USB can deliver up to 10 Watts, which charges small mobile devices reasonably quickly. However, as phones get bigger and batteries charge faster, there’s a distinct need for something that can supply more power than micro-USB.<br /> <br /> Laptops, on the other hand, have no common charge standard. Each one tends to have its own proprietary connector and power supply to deliver just the right combination of voltage and current to charge that laptop at its most efficient point. Laptops also need a lot more than 10 Watts of power.<br /> <br /> <h3> More power and speed</h3> USB Type-C combines these varying needs in a durable, high power, high data-rate connector powerful enough for laptops yet small enough for mobile phones. It also does so in a symmetrical design to eliminate the guesswork when plugging in.<br /> <br /> USB Type-C can deliver up to 100W of power, which is more than even the largest laptops typically need. When a USB Type-C enabled device is plugged in, the charger negotiates the right power for that device.  That way, phones, laptops and tablets can all be powered from the same charger.<br /> <br /> Not only does Type-C enable universal charging, but it also allows high-speed data and high resolution display. Type-C was designed to transfer data at speeds up to 20Gbs. Since current USB devices max out at 5Gbs, there’s room to grow.<br /> <br /> From the same port, Type-C also enables high resolution display output to a monitor or TV through DisplayPort and HDMI accessories.<br /> <br /> <h3> New possibilities</h3> USB Type-C on the new Pixel means that one day soon you’ll be able to charge your phone, laptop, and tablet all from the same power charger.<br /> <br /> There’s a Type-C port on both sides of the Pixel, so you can output display and charge at the same time. It also means you can charge from either side of your laptop, something that’s really convenient on a crowded desk.<br /> <br /> Forgot your power adapter? Plug in the optional Type-C to USB A cable, and top up from any traditional USB port, your phone charger, or a USB power bank. It won’t charge as fast as the included 60W supply, but it’s handy in a pinch.  For the truly adventurous, you could even charge your Pixel from another Pixel!**<br /> <br /> As more devices use Type-C, you can imagine a world where chargers become ubiquitous to the point where device makers won’t need to ship them with a new phone or laptop. We’ve even <a href="http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/hoho">open sourced</a> our work on Type-C adapters so that you’ll have more choice of accessories.

At first, the site had only 19 experiments, but we hoped they would be a source of inspiration for programmers who made art with open web technologies. Since then, we’ve been humbled by the quantity and quality of new submissions. Today, we’ve reached a major milestone: 1,000 experiments.<br /> <br /> To celebrate, we’ve created a special <a href="http://1000.chromeexperiments.com/" target="_blank">Experiment #1000</a> that visualizes every other experiment on the site. You can explore all 1,000 in a variety of ways, including a <a href="http://1000.chromeexperiments.com/#/editor" target="_blank">real-time code editor</a> and a <a href="http://1000.chromeexperiments.com/#/graph" target="_blank">timeline</a> with selectable tags.

At first, the site had only 19 experiments, but we hoped they would be a source of inspiration for programmers who made art with open web technologies. Since then, we’ve been humbled by the quantity and quality of new submissions. Today, we’ve reached a major milestone: 1,000 experiments.<br /> <br /> To celebrate, we’ve created a special <a href="http://1000.chromeexperiments.com/" target="_blank">Experiment #1000</a> that visualizes every other experiment on the site. You can explore all 1,000 in a variety of ways, including a <a href="http://1000.chromeexperiments.com/#/editor" target="_blank">real-time code editor</a> and a <a href="http://1000.chromeexperiments.com/#/graph" target="_blank">timeline</a> with selectable tags. Click on the WebGL tag, for example, and you’ll see how that technology surged in popularity when it was <a href="http://chrome.blogspot.com/2011/02/dash-of-speed-3d-and-apps.html" target="_blank">added to Chrome</a> in 2011.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2lGdAFD6HbpmNUC9fems7E9zO34-roKa8CPXM4kd4MpnPDDpX9yUZR2g2oDpRgVc4etKe2YWFK1-xHrOS7fA9TzRVqMZPtDgE1L-Ro08cGneeY7bHuHBtdXhAAtdoaDQgFZLpzI2z8p4i/s1600/CE+1000+--+for+chrome+blog+post.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="242" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2lGdAFD6HbpmNUC9fems7E9zO34-roKa8CPXM4kd4MpnPDDpX9yUZR2g2oDpRgVc4etKe2YWFK1-xHrOS7fA9TzRVqMZPtDgE1L-Ro08cGneeY7bHuHBtdXhAAtdoaDQgFZLpzI2z8p4i/s1600/CE+1000+--+for+chrome+blog+post.png" width="400" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <i>A visualization of the first 1,000 Chrome Experiments</i></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> Along with Experiment #1000, we’ve redesigned ChromeExperiments.com using <a href="https://www.polymer-project.org/" target="_blank">Polymer</a>.

At Google I/O in 2012, we released the first mobile experiments, including AlteredQualia’s <a href="http://alteredqualia.com/touchtoy/">Multitouch Toy</a> and Dominic Szablewski’s <a href="http://phoboslab.org/xtype/">X-Type</a>.
