However, between booking airplane tickets, sending greeting cards and looking for the perfect gifts, the pre-holiday season can be busy...and even a bit stressful. This year though, I feel much more in control thanks to the apps I discovered in the Chrome Web Store’s <a href=" https://chrome.google.com/webstore?category=collection%2F23-holiday">Holiday collection</a>.<br /><br />If you are looking for last minute holiday gifts, try <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/iocebbchlphdehmmkhjimmhaefolfpoh"> Gilt for Chrome</a>.

Today we’re excited to introduce a few of these new security, speed, and open web platform features into Chrome’s <a href="//www.google.com/intl/en/landing/chrome/beta/">beta channel</a>.<br /><br />As one of the engineers working on Chrome’s <a href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com/browser-protection/3">sandbox</a>, I’m happy to announce that we’re bringing Chrome’s existing sandboxing technology for web pages to the <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2010/12/rolling-out-sandbox-for-adobe-flash.html">Flash Player</a> <a href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com/plugins/1">plug-in</a> in Chrome for Windows. The sandbox adds an <a href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com/browser-protection/3">additional layer of protection</a> to further guard against <a href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com/malware/1">malicious pages</a> that try to hijack your computer or steal private information from your hard drive. Based on this groundwork in the beta, we’ll be bringing the sandboxed Flash Player to Chrome for Mac and Linux in future releases as well. For an explanation of how sandboxing technology makes Chrome safer, check out this animated video:<br /><br /><object height="340" width="560"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/29e0CtgXZSI?fs=1&hl=en_US&hd=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/29e0CtgXZSI?fs=1&hl=en_US&hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object><br /><br />With the latest beta, you can turn on Chrome Instant (à la <a href="//www.google.com/instant/">Google Instant</a>), which lets you view web pages and search results faster than ever. With <a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?answer=177873">Instant enabled</a>, web pages that you frequently visit will begin loading as soon as you start typing a URL in the <a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95440">omnibox</a>, faster than you can say ‘Jack Robinson!’ (or in this case, faster than you can hit Enter). In addition, if supported by your default search engine, search results appear instantly as you type queries in the omnibox, and in-line predictions will also appear to help guide your search. Give it a whirl by enabling it on the Basics tab of Chrome’s options and see how you like it!<br /><br />Finally, this beta will include WebGL, a new web technology for bringing hardware-accelerated 3D graphics to the browser. For more on WebGL in Chrome, check out the <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2010/12/webgl-now-in-beta-here-comes-3d-web.html">Chromium blog</a>.

The first mental leap is that you have to visually identify 900.91 as <a href="//goo.gl/">goo.gl</a> (just like spelling words on a calculator: 9=g,0=o,0=o,9=g,1=l).

Once you see that, it can be broken up into:</div><div> <blockquote>19 16 05 05 04 01 14 04 04 05 19 20 18 15 25</blockquote></div><div>If you've gotten this far, you've probably noticed that all of those numbers are between 1 and 26.

From there, you need to figure out the shortened URL.</div><div><br /></div><div>The number 191605050401140404051920181525 may confuse people for a bit, but the large number of zeros and the repeated "04" and "05" sequences in it visually allude to pairs within the string. Once you see that, it can be broken up into:</div><div> <blockquote>19 16 05 05 04 01 14 04 04 05 19 20 18 15 25</blockquote></div><div>If you've gotten this far, you've probably noticed that all of those numbers are between 1 and 26. From here, it's just a straight mapping to letters of the alphabet (A=1, B=2, C=3, etc). Decoding the full string gives you:</div><div> <blockquote>s p e e d a n d d e s t r o y</blockquote></div><div>Putting everything together, the end result is:</div><div> <blockquote><a href="//goo.gl/speedanddestroy">goo.gl/speedanddestroy</a></blockquote></div><div>That URL points to a page where you can fill out a form to request a shiny new Chrome notebook (the form is closed now, of course).</div><div><br /></div><span class="post-author">Posted by Chris Lyon, Hardware Engineer, Chrome OS Team</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/2010/12/x-g-chrom-3.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:X = G / (C*H*R*O*M - 3)&url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/12/x-g-chrom-3.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/2010/12/x-g-chrom-3.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/2010/12/x-g-chrom-3.html' data-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/12/x-g-chrom-3.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/12/x-g-chrom-3.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> , <a class='label' href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/search/label/chrome%20os' rel='tag'> chrome os </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='7028406056656939251' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/12/keep-calm-and-carry-on-chrome-notebook.html' itemprop='url' title='Keep calm and carry on: Chrome notebook'> Keep calm and carry on: Chrome notebook </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Friday, December 10, 2010 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> At our <a href="//www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQzAUaZ26co">Chrome event</a> on Tuesday, we showed how Chrome notebooks can make computing simpler.<br /><br />Thanks to the cloud, your Chrome notebook might be how you do everything, but losing it means you lose nothing.

We designed Chrome to make the web shine, and we hope our upcoming efforts will help support this vibrant ecosystem even more. By making the web faster, helping people discover great apps, and making computers more fun to use, the next year of computing should be even more exciting than the last one.<br /><br /><b>Chrome</b><br /><br />This year, the number of people using Chrome has tripled from 40 to 120 million. Speed is what people love most about Chrome, and we’re always working to make the browser even faster. Therefore we’re bringing Google Instant to the Omnibox, showing search results and loading web pages as you type. We’ve also overhauled V8, Chrome’s JavaScript engine. It now runs complex JavaScript programs up to <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2010/12/new-crankshaft-for-v8.html" class="vt-p">twice as fast</a> as before. These two features are available in our <a href="http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel" class="vt-p">early access channels</a> and will be rolling out to all users soon.<br /><br /><b>Chrome Web Store</b><br /><br />Today the <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore" class="vt-p">Chrome Web Store</a> is open for business. Developers have already started uploading apps, and we expect the number to grow over time. Right now the store is only available in the U.S., but will expand to many countries and currencies early next year. The store will be featured prominently in Chrome, helping people discover great apps and developers reach millions of users around the world.<br /><br /><b>Chrome OS</b><br /><br />Last year, we <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/07/introducing-google-chrome-os.html" class="vt-p">announced</a> our effort to design an operating system that is built and optimized for the web. Many people already spend all their time in a web browser, and by building an operating system that is essentially a browser, we can make computers faster, much simpler and fundamentally more secure.<br /><br />We’re not done yet, but Chrome OS is at the stage where we need feedback from real users. Some of the features of Chrome OS require new hardware, but we didn’t want to sell pre-beta computers. Instead we’re launching a pilot program where we will give test notebooks to qualified users, developers, schools and businesses. We're starting with the U.S. and will expand to other countries once we get the necessary certifications. To participate in the pilot program, visit the <a href="//www.google.com/chromeos" class="vt-p">Chrome notebook website</a>.<br /><br />The test notebooks exist only to test the software—they are black, have no branding, no logos, no stickers, nothing. They do have 12.1 inch screens, full-sized keyboards and touch pads, integrated 3G from Verizon, eight hours of battery life and eight days of standby time. Chrome notebooks are designed to reach the web instantly, are easy to share among friends and family, and simply by logging in, all of your apps, bookmarks and other browser settings are there. Setting up a new machine takes less than a minute. And even at this early stage, we feel there is no consumer or business operating system that is more secure.<br /><br />In the first half of next year Chrome notebooks will be available for sale from Acer and Samsung. More manufacturers will follow. Also, Chrome OS is designed to work across a wide range of screen sizes and form factors, enabling our partners to deliver computing devices beyond notebooks.<br /><br />We’re excited to get Chrome notebooks into the hands of users. The data from our test pilots is key to building something wonderful.

More than two years ago, we launched Chrome with a <a href="//www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/">comic book</a> by Scott McCloud. Since then, a few of our colleagues at Google created a simple explanatory website called <a href="http://www.whatbrowser.org">WhatBrowser.org</a> when they realized that many of our friends and family weren’t sure what web browsers are. <br /><br />Today, we’re very excited to release a special project called “<a href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com">20 Things I Learned about Browsers and the Web</a>.” In the spirit of Chrome’s tradition with books and <a href="http://www.thewildernessdowntown.com/">HTML5 experiences</a>, we teamed up with illustrator <a href="http://niemann.blogs.nytimes.com/">Christoph Niemann</a> to publish an online guidebook to browsers and the web, written by the Chrome team. If you have questions like “What are plug-ins?,” “What is HTML5?,” or even “Why is it ok for a truck to crush my laptop?,” “20 Things” is a handy guide for anyone who’s curious about the basics of browsers and the web.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540892737059174978" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgY5E0WVtEDvoljpVixxwUiYa-t24jrHlmQcPEmjPazXVb0AGX-rcCTRMCC10-54mum3Uk3H1tzCi6Ek8Oh24ek0WNJi00KWdqSD0jIt-UsJKUjsUpwMJeCNA0xLHMLZeic6rLAE9z9B4nz/s400/20things-screenshot.PNG" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 336px;" /></a><br /><br />So grab a cup of hot chocolate and enjoy this illustrated guidebook in <a href="//www.google.com/chrome?brand=CHNQ">Chrome</a> or any up-to-date HTML5-compliant browser. Once you’ve loaded it in the browser, you can even disconnect your laptop and read comfortably in your favorite armchair since this guidebook works offline, thanks to <a href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com/html5/1">HTML5</a>. You can also jump directly back to the page at which you’d previously left off, search for topics that you’d like to read up on, or even view it in “lights off” mode (remember reading under the covers with a flashlight?). If you’re on Chrome’s beta channel, you can give the <a href="http://chrome.blogspot.com/2010/11/pdf-goodness-in-chrome.html">Chrome PDF viewer</a> a test drive in the “Print book” section of the guidebook. <br /><br />To read this online guide, go to <a href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com">www.20thingsilearned.com</a>, (or you can use this shortened URL: <a href="//goo.gl/20things">goo.gl/20things</a>.)

If you have questions like “What are plug-ins?,” “What is HTML5?,” or even “Why is it ok for a truck to crush my laptop?,” “20 Things” is a handy guide for anyone who’s curious about the basics of browsers and the web.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540892737059174978" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgY5E0WVtEDvoljpVixxwUiYa-t24jrHlmQcPEmjPazXVb0AGX-rcCTRMCC10-54mum3Uk3H1tzCi6Ek8Oh24ek0WNJi00KWdqSD0jIt-UsJKUjsUpwMJeCNA0xLHMLZeic6rLAE9z9B4nz/s400/20things-screenshot.PNG" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 336px;" /></a><br /><br />So grab a cup of hot chocolate and enjoy this illustrated guidebook in <a href="//www.google.com/chrome?brand=CHNQ">Chrome</a> or any up-to-date HTML5-compliant browser. Once you’ve loaded it in the browser, you can even disconnect your laptop and read comfortably in your favorite armchair since this guidebook works offline, thanks to <a href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com/html5/1">HTML5</a>. You can also jump directly back to the page at which you’d previously left off, search for topics that you’d like to read up on, or even view it in “lights off” mode (remember reading under the covers with a flashlight?). If you’re on Chrome’s beta channel, you can give the <a href="http://chrome.blogspot.com/2010/11/pdf-goodness-in-chrome.html">Chrome PDF viewer</a> a test drive in the “Print book” section of the guidebook. <br /><br />To read this online guide, go to <a href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com">www.20thingsilearned.com</a>, (or you can use this shortened URL: <a href="//goo.gl/20things">goo.gl/20things</a>.) And to learn more about how we made it, you can read about the technical details on the <a href="http://googlecode.blogspot.com/2010/11/html5-browsers-and-books-twenty-years.html">Google Code Blog</a>.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com/html5/1"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540893091143976770" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjfDcVr_pWvSni43Eqx-S0SJvldKRGGUtyJt80xO0vWN3M9LFyRcrUy9vLe-jH-kRdVhwW0mNtrkA_gnDgJGsZYcrXqNJjx0JDYbSzNlHwIBwKS-yQ2qLx9R1rxXrZCzA5ZYBExxVPXIhX/s400/screenshot-pageturn-cookies.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 337px;" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.20thingsilearned.com/threed/1"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540893233817936514" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGZqRyEBwV0ggn2LiqxfVCswe2le47DlXx1qJi-UUJtblezir8Qq9L_ckqIj-WsxNkDGlYMU-PZ4eTAi_rvtAKpuvNbQFGw6EQ16t2o-L3MS_PCmz2oI6jcfy49veTEIXH-DL2pjfj2TG3/s400/screenshot-3d-lightsoff.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 336px;" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="post-author">Posted by Min Li Chan, Product Marketing Manager</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/2010/11/curious-guide-to-browsers-and-web.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:A curious guide to browsers and the web&url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/11/curious-guide-to-browsers-and-web.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/2010/11/curious-guide-to-browsers-and-web.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/2010/11/curious-guide-to-browsers-and-web.html' data-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/11/curious-guide-to-browsers-and-web.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/11/curious-guide-to-browsers-and-web.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='8281565558842161756' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/11/new-chrome-extensions-by-google.html' itemprop='url' title='New Chrome Extensions by Google'> New Chrome Extensions by Google </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Thursday, November 11, 2010 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> We've been thrilled to see many useful Chrome extensions created by developers around the world.

One of the most important security indicators in Google Chrome is the “<a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95440">omnibox</a>,” the spot where you enter web addresses:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwOPmvyGkw-FwYzd7dfMP6lZ9oqzprwahHkfclfg-aB2aX4OBhUSRC4QhQiC96GqjLJYGFMBHaXA71YZlRwwQi1zS9KlqmWMVcLO6rTF1K9GGUc_3i-6Sc3A3ILM7JRjXzh1SzaMc3dLRD/s1600/gmail-omnibox.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5530927089085864562" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwOPmvyGkw-FwYzd7dfMP6lZ9oqzprwahHkfclfg-aB2aX4OBhUSRC4QhQiC96GqjLJYGFMBHaXA71YZlRwwQi1zS9KlqmWMVcLO6rTF1K9GGUc_3i-6Sc3A3ILM7JRjXzh1SzaMc3dLRD/s400/gmail-omnibox.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 81px;" /></a><br /><br />The first thing to notice about the omnibox is that Google Chrome highlights the domain name of the website that you’re viewing with a slightly darker color. The domain name indicates which website is being displayed by the browser in the current tab. For example, the domain name in the image above is “www.google.com”.<br /><br />Before interacting with a website, check that the omnibox has highlighted the domain name you expect. If the domain name doesn’t match what you expect, the website might be spoofing the “look and feel” of another site as part of a <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/04/how-to-avoid-getting-hooked.html">phishing attack</a>. Google Chrome has <a href="http://chrome.blogspot.com/2009/10/are-you-seeing-red.html">built-in protection against phishing</a>, but checking the domain name yourself is a good security habit — especially when entering sensitive information, such as your password or credit card number.<br /><br />When entering sensitive information, the second thing to notice about the omnibox is the lock icon, which is displayed to the left of the web site address and, in the case above, is colored green. The lock icon indicates that Google Chrome has established an encrypted connection that works like a tunnel between your computer and the domain name displayed in the omnibox. An <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security">encrypted connection</a> helps prevent malicious parties from eavesdropping or tampering with the data sent between your computer and the website. Most websites will use an encrypted tunnel when asking for your password or credit card number to help prevent people using the same wireless network as you, for example at a coffee shop, from being able to eavesdrop on your sensitive information.<br /><br />Some websites have an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Validation_Certificate">“extended validation” certificate</a> that lets the browser determine the name of the organization that runs the web site. Notice the green box between the lock icon and the web address in the omnibox:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjymZMxMnSFii6t7f7B7JFYWXl4G0N7XcoUgmJjFonU1KKVVyerxMCyKs9DH9CchQ6isAPFLgxnihdVsDXUZP_B_VqchGM288_4TmFYaK1pL0m47gK5pxqBIMA9cVSWa4xuYY_y3d8NSMal/s1600/paypal-omnibox.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5530927311617542498" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjymZMxMnSFii6t7f7B7JFYWXl4G0N7XcoUgmJjFonU1KKVVyerxMCyKs9DH9CchQ6isAPFLgxnihdVsDXUZP_B_VqchGM288_4TmFYaK1pL0m47gK5pxqBIMA9cVSWa4xuYY_y3d8NSMal/s400/paypal-omnibox.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 87px;" /></a><br /><br />The extended validation indicator makes it easier for you to determine which organization is responsible for the displayed web page. For example, the extended validation indicator for <a href="https://www.benefitaccess.com/">https://www.benefitaccess.com/</a> says “Citigroup Inc [US],” indicating that Citigroup is responsible for that web page – a fact which might have been difficult to determine without the indicator.

Chrome is now three times faster than it was two years ago on JavaScript performance. We’ve also been working on simplifying the “chrome” of Chrome. As you can see, we took the already minimalist user interface and stripped it down a bit more to make it easier to use. We combined Chrome’s two menus into one, revisited the location of the buttons, cleaned up the treatment of the URL and the <a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?answer=95440">Omnibox</a>, and adjusted the color scheme of the browser to be easier on the eyes.<br /><br />Sliding back into Doc Brown’s <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeLorean_time_machine">DeLorean</a> and setting the dial ahead by a few months, we have more in store for Chrome. As always, we’re hard at work on making Chrome even faster, and working on ways to improve graphics performance in the browser through hardware acceleration. With the <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2010/05/chrome-web-store.html">Chrome Web Store</a>, we hope to make it much easier to find and use great applications on the web. We also <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2010/07/release-early-release-often.html">ratcheted up</a> the pace of our releases so that we can get new features and improvements to everyone more quickly.<br /><br />If you haven’t tried Chrome recently, we invite you to download our new stable version today at <a href="//www.google.com/chrome?brand=CHMP">google.com/chrome</a>. For those of you who have been using Chrome, thanks for a great second year!

The main character Marty McFly travels 30 years back in time, only to find that his house hadn’t been built yet, skateboards hadn’t been invented and nobody had ever heard rock ‘n roll.<br /><br />Looking back today on Chrome’s second anniversary, it’s amazing to see how much has changed in just a short time. In August 2008, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Javascript">JavaScript</a> was 10 times slower, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5">HTML5</a> support wasn’t yet an <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/arcade-fire-meets-html5.html">essential feature</a> in modern browsers, and the idea of a sandboxed, multi-process browser was only a <a href="http://www.charlesreis.com/research/publications/hotnets-2007-talk.pdf?attredirects=0">research project</a>.

To launch the project and learn more about how we made it, please visit our Chrome Experiments site at <a href="http://www.chromeexperiments.com/arcadefire/">www.chromeexperiments.com/arcadefire</a>.<br /><br /><span class="post-author">Posted by Thomas Gayno, Google Creative Lab</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/2010/08/arcade-fire-html5-and-chrome.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:Arcade Fire, HTML5 and Chrome&url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/08/arcade-fire-html5-and-chrome.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/2010/08/arcade-fire-html5-and-chrome.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/2010/08/arcade-fire-html5-and-chrome.html' data-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/08/arcade-fire-html5-and-chrome.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/08/arcade-fire-html5-and-chrome.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='7299322675559606149' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2010/08/more-ways-to-find-right-chrome.html' itemprop='url' title='More ways to find the right Chrome Extension for you'> More ways to find the right Chrome Extension for you </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Thursday, August 19, 2010 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> A few months ago, we <a href="http://chrome.blogspot.com/2010/05/six-ways-to-find-right-chrome-extension.html">launched</a> several categories of featured Chrome extensions to help you find the right one.

Autofill builds up and saves this information for you over time, so that you can fill in long web forms with just a few clicks without typing in the same information over again. For your security, any personal information stored in Chrome is safely stored and kept private until a user chooses to share the information with a website. Additionally, your credit card information is never saved without first asking you explicitly. <br /><br />For a demo of Autofill, check out this video:<br /><object height="340" width="560"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/v-socgG1dqE&hl=en_US&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/v-socgG1dqE&hl=en_US&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object><br /><br />We also continue to bring more <a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=165139&from=165138">synchronization capabilities</a> to Chrome. In addition to syncing bookmarks, preferences, and themes, you can now choose to sync your Chrome extensions as well as your Autofill data (excluding credit card numbers) through your Google Account. With Chrome’s sync features, you can personalize your Chrome experience and access your painstakingly curated set of bookmarks, preferences, themes, extensions, and Autofill data from any computer you choose, as long as you’re signed in to your Google Account on Chrome for that computer. To start syncing, go to the the “Sync” section of the “Personal Stuff” tab in Chrome’s options.<br /><br />You may notice that we’ve given the user interface of the browser a facelift in this beta. As <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2010/06/fresh-coat-of-chrome.html">previewed</a> on the developer channel in June, we have streamlined the upper toolbar, made the <a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95440">Omnibox</a> more approachable, and condensed all of our options into a single menu. We hope that these visual changes will make Chrome feel even simpler.<br /><br />Last, but certainly not least, our new beta release continues to be faster than before. Compared to our previous beta release, our newest beta hits a 15% speed improvement on the <a href="http://v8.googlecode.com/svn/data/benchmarks/v5/run.html">V8 benchmark</a>, and a 15% improvement on the <a href="http://www2.webkit.org/perf/sunspider-0.9/sunspider.html">SunSpider benchmark</a>, both of which measure JavaScript performance.

Autofill builds up and saves this information for you over time, so that you can fill in long web forms with just a few clicks without typing in the same information over again. For your security, any personal information stored in Chrome is safely stored and kept private until a user chooses to share the information with a website. Additionally, your credit card information is never saved without first asking you explicitly. <br /><br />For a demo of Autofill, check out this video:<br /><object height="340" width="560"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/v-socgG1dqE&hl=en_US&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/v-socgG1dqE&hl=en_US&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object><br /><br />We also continue to bring more <a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=165139&from=165138">synchronization capabilities</a> to Chrome. In addition to syncing bookmarks, preferences, and themes, you can now choose to sync your Chrome extensions as well as your Autofill data (excluding credit card numbers) through your Google Account.
