On the Google Chrome team, we've had the same feeling as we've been working to get betas ready for Mac, Linux and extensions. It's been a long time coming, but today we can check the top three items off our users' wish lists. <br /><br /><b>Google Chrome for Mac (Beta)</b> <br />We've been working hard to deliver a first-class browser for the Mac — it took longer than we expected, but we hope the wait was worth it! We wanted Google Chrome to feel at home on the Mac, so we've focused on uniting our clean, simple design with subtle animations and effects to create a snappy and satisfying browsing experience on OS X. As you might expect, the speed of Google Chrome for Mac is something we're very proud of. If you have a Mac, <a href="//www.google.com/chrome?platform=mac">try installing the beta</a> and see how fast it launches — there's hardly even time for the icon in the dock to bounce!<br /><br />For more details on this beta release of Google Chrome for Mac, read on in the <a href="http://googlemac.blogspot.com/2009/12/google-chrome-for-mac-goes-beta.html">Google Mac blog</a> or watch this video from one of our engineers, Mike Pinkerton:<br /><br /><object height="340" width="560"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/P3AsjP-UzMA&hl=en_US&fs=1&hd=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/P3AsjP-UzMA&hl=en_US&fs=1&hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object><br /><br /><b>Google Chrome for Linux (Beta)</b><br />At Google, most engineers use Linux machines, so we certainly heard loud and clear how much they wanted Google Chrome for Linux. Just like Google Chrome for Windows and Mac, we focused on speed, stability and security, but we also wanted a high-performance browser that integrated well with the Linux ecosystem. This includes tight integration with native <a href="http://www.gtk.org/">GTK</a> themes, updates that are managed by the standard system package manager, and many other features that fit in natively with the operating system where possible.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqHH95pl71rUIU0tDjOYSaShinzzlBVLalSJcAk5kaLi4FZyisrFbasPMY4iCTg3vSSACwzil-uZ_E_AIC5TtWP1StmepU-pAhiMTkvmeaPvAnEtarHMsm6g0prGMXzvrBa3-SBeo63IWS/s1600-h/Linux_GTKthemes.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412879143570772530" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqHH95pl71rUIU0tDjOYSaShinzzlBVLalSJcAk5kaLi4FZyisrFbasPMY4iCTg3vSSACwzil-uZ_E_AIC5TtWP1StmepU-pAhiMTkvmeaPvAnEtarHMsm6g0prGMXzvrBa3-SBeo63IWS/s320/Linux_GTKthemes.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 302px; height: 320px;" /></a><i>Google Chrome for Linux in various GTK themes</i><br /><br />Just as important, we've had quite a bit of help from the open source community.

For more details on the beta release of Google Chrome for Linux, check out the <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2009/12/google-chrome-for-linux-goes-beta.html">Chromium blog</a>.<br /><br /><b>Extensions in Google Chrome for Windows and Linux (Beta)</b><br />When we <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/09/fresh-take-on-browser.html">first launched</a> Google Chrome in September 2008, we knew that we wanted to make it easy for you to customize the browser with <a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?answer=154007&topic=25692&hl=en_US">extensions</a>. We also wanted to make extensions easy to create and maintain, while preserving Google Chrome's speed and stability. Extensions on Google Chrome accomplishes all these goals: they are as easy to create as web pages, easy to install, and each extension runs in its own process to avoid crashing or significantly slowing down the browser.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2hqCYAQXjak3XgMwZrAS7101Rr-Yg6cKjIeoxi0OaNcU_TndRTc7G8mhS0e4FFWZjpTYA2lweeFCg9XROr5oRIgfbvvYC-UrxtznVBukZnjLenH_WDG7VOzDpuiTB0CX-To3i3Do_3GNV/s1600-h/extensions-screenshot.gif"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412884869735365058" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2hqCYAQXjak3XgMwZrAS7101Rr-Yg6cKjIeoxi0OaNcU_TndRTc7G8mhS0e4FFWZjpTYA2lweeFCg9XROr5oRIgfbvvYC-UrxtznVBukZnjLenH_WDG7VOzDpuiTB0CX-To3i3Do_3GNV/s400/extensions-screenshot.gif" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 232px;" /></a><i>Extensions installed on Google Chrome (for PC or Linux)</i><br /><br />If you're on a PC or a Linux machine, you can check out more than 300 extensions in the <a href="https://chrome.google.com/extensions/">gallery</a>, including a few <a href="https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/ncgcgghbabbopfcpgcjpfffdgnbadegf">cool</a>, <a href="https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/ajpgkpeckebdhofmmjfgcjjiiejpodla">useful</a> and <a href="https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/nedjejdfkkjgebciefdfofjhmeogiaga">cute</a> extensions .

Extensions on Google Chrome accomplishes all these goals: they are as easy to create as web pages, easy to install, and each extension runs in its own process to avoid crashing or significantly slowing down the browser.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2hqCYAQXjak3XgMwZrAS7101Rr-Yg6cKjIeoxi0OaNcU_TndRTc7G8mhS0e4FFWZjpTYA2lweeFCg9XROr5oRIgfbvvYC-UrxtznVBukZnjLenH_WDG7VOzDpuiTB0CX-To3i3Do_3GNV/s1600-h/extensions-screenshot.gif"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412884869735365058" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2hqCYAQXjak3XgMwZrAS7101Rr-Yg6cKjIeoxi0OaNcU_TndRTc7G8mhS0e4FFWZjpTYA2lweeFCg9XROr5oRIgfbvvYC-UrxtznVBukZnjLenH_WDG7VOzDpuiTB0CX-To3i3Do_3GNV/s400/extensions-screenshot.gif" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 232px;" /></a><i>Extensions installed on Google Chrome (for PC or Linux)</i><br /><br />If you're on a PC or a Linux machine, you can check out more than 300 extensions in the <a href="https://chrome.google.com/extensions/">gallery</a>, including a few <a href="https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/ncgcgghbabbopfcpgcjpfffdgnbadegf">cool</a>, <a href="https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/ajpgkpeckebdhofmmjfgcjjiiejpodla">useful</a> and <a href="https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/nedjejdfkkjgebciefdfofjhmeogiaga">cute</a> extensions . Extensions aren't quite beta-quality on Mac yet, but you will be able to preview them on a <a href="http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel">developer channel</a> soon. And if you're a web developer, you can learn more about writing extensions for Google Chrome on the <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2009/12/extensions-beta-launched-with-over-300.html">Chromium blog</a>.<br /><br /><br />We hope the betas for Mac, Linux and extensions were some of the things on your wish list this year. We'd like to say thanks to <a href="//www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/huzzah.html">Mac</a> and <a href="//www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/w00t.html">Linux</a> users who gave our early developer versions of Google Chrome a test drive on these platforms, as well as developers who wrote <a href="https://chrome.google.com/extensions/">great extensions</a> for Google Chrome.

The craftsman's spirit in Japanese culture basically appeals to all of us, regardless of vocation, to aspire to beauty in everything we do and create.</p><p>As we collaborated with artists around the globe to create <a href="http://chrome.blogspot.com/2009/10/splash-of-color-to-your-browser-artist.html">themes for Google Chrome</a>, we hope that bringing art from different cultures into the modern browser expresses some of that spirit. We've enjoyed hearing <a href="http://twitter.com/#search?q=google%20chrome%20themes">your thoughts</a> on these designs and how you've used them to personalize your browser. For a friend who emailed me recently, the <a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_at_hedgehoginthefog.html">Hedgehog in the Fog theme</a> brought back fond memories of his Russian childhood and the intrepid Yozhik (as the hedgehog is affectionately known in Russia). This Google Chrome theme is based on the 1975 <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedgehog_in_the_Fog">animated film</a>, which incidentally won "No.1 Animated film of all time" at the 2003 Laputa Animation Festival.</p><p>Beauty can be based on a heart-warming 34-year-old animation that makes us nostalgic, or cultural references that makes us who we are today. Our friends working on Google Chrome in Tokyo pointed us to a few Google Chrome themes that resonate with our users in Japan.

The craftsman's spirit in Japanese culture basically appeals to all of us, regardless of vocation, to aspire to beauty in everything we do and create.</p><p>As we collaborated with artists around the globe to create <a href="http://chrome.blogspot.com/2009/10/splash-of-color-to-your-browser-artist.html">themes for Google Chrome</a>, we hope that bringing art from different cultures into the modern browser expresses some of that spirit. We've enjoyed hearing <a href="http://twitter.com/#search?q=google%20chrome%20themes">your thoughts</a> on these designs and how you've used them to personalize your browser. For a friend who emailed me recently, the <a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_at_hedgehoginthefog.html">Hedgehog in the Fog theme</a> brought back fond memories of his Russian childhood and the intrepid Yozhik (as the hedgehog is affectionately known in Russia). This Google Chrome theme is based on the 1975 <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedgehog_in_the_Fog">animated film</a>, which incidentally won "No.1 Animated film of all time" at the 2003 Laputa Animation Festival.</p><p>Beauty can be based on a heart-warming 34-year-old animation that makes us nostalgic, or cultural references that makes us who we are today. Our friends working on Google Chrome in Tokyo pointed us to a few Google Chrome themes that resonate with our users in Japan. These themes are based on a modern-day, participatory culture of remixing ideas. Take for example, the Google Chrome theme from global virtual pop star <a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_at_hatsunemiku.html">Hatsune Miku</a>. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vocaloid#Hatsune_Miku">Hatsune Miku</a> began as a character in a vocal synthesis software package from Sapporo-based Crypton Future Media.

<p>In the <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/google-chrome-after-year-sporting-new.html">most recent</a> stable release of Google Chrome, we looked at ways to make a snappy, simple browser even more customizable, and we're happy to hear that you've enjoyed <a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=148695">personalizing</a> Google Chrome's look and feel with a few of our early themes for the browser.</p><p>Today, we are introducing <a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/p/at_chrome.html?hl=en&utm_campaign=en&utm_source=en-chromeblog-theme&utm_medium=chromeblog">Artist Themes for Google Chrome</a>. We invited leading artists, architects, musicians, illustrators, filmmakers and fashion and interior designers from across the globe to create artwork for an unusual canvas: the modern web browser. The result is a vibrant fusion of art and technology, with a hundred Artist Themes that we hope will add a touch of inspiration and delight to your web browsing experience with Google Chrome.</p><p>One of our favorite themes comes from <a href="http://www.artyulia.com/">Yulia Brodskaya</a>, whose innovative paper art techniques and passion for typography and illustration have brought her into the international spotlight. We were particularly intrigued by Yulia's approach to the design challenge at hand, explained in her own words: </p><br /><blockquote>I was really curious to see how the traditional paper craft, which I use for creating my work, can be applied to the Google Chrome browser. I made a quick pencil sketch first, choosing the two main elements for my theme: green jungle leaves for the top and a very colourful parrot to accompany it. Then I followed my usual working pattern and created a physical artwork out of edge glued paper stripes. I used the photographs of the paper leaves and parrot to design my theme layout, and sent the resulting mock-up to Google designers who brought the whole thing to life.</blockquote><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAQMHlpRAckVYCEcKlefI9nBNzs8G0Qek0-cZT2skHHy6WeJVq1ctPhyphenhyphenUJSWB36-FPWUh40dDl79zKpYVsjol3wxxRAu8uE8zN41gNA7bLPSe__jtfv2CR10TP0bYp09qkbicsCOlFB6vq/s1600-h/Yulia-Theme-PencilSketch.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5388839013323575746" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAQMHlpRAckVYCEcKlefI9nBNzs8G0Qek0-cZT2skHHy6WeJVq1ctPhyphenhyphenUJSWB36-FPWUh40dDl79zKpYVsjol3wxxRAu8uE8zN41gNA7bLPSe__jtfv2CR10TP0bYp09qkbicsCOlFB6vq/s400/Yulia-Theme-PencilSketch.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 291px;" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Yulia's original pencil sketch</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_at_yulia.html"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5388839747512645602" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimpqDoEvPgfQI3qgnP4lSe8-__0gID69Id0ELUw_f7n5k4nNtoTcWPjHLw9jBoDJE34ohwYb6zTfNs_Ou8oYNqaHQeXUjxQ0Y0vMbqSG8WIWFTg9xpbx4NpVQAYZ3PzGzqzYW-4OAiV5gJ/s400/Yulie-FullTheme.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 254px;" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Yulia's final theme in Google Chrome</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><br /><p>We're honored to have the opportunity to work with a hundred artists around the world, including Jeff Koons, Jenny Holzer, Karim Rashid, Jonathan Adler, Oscar de la Renta, Anita Kunz, Tom Sachs, Kate Spade, Donna Karan, Kid Robot, Dolce & Gabbana, Michael Graves, Todd Oldham, Yann Arthus-Bertrand, Mariah Carey, and Wes Craven (and that's just to name a few!).

We invited leading artists, architects, musicians, illustrators, filmmakers and fashion and interior designers from across the globe to create artwork for an unusual canvas: the modern web browser. The result is a vibrant fusion of art and technology, with a hundred Artist Themes that we hope will add a touch of inspiration and delight to your web browsing experience with Google Chrome.</p><p>One of our favorite themes comes from <a href="http://www.artyulia.com/">Yulia Brodskaya</a>, whose innovative paper art techniques and passion for typography and illustration have brought her into the international spotlight. We were particularly intrigued by Yulia's approach to the design challenge at hand, explained in her own words: </p><br /><blockquote>I was really curious to see how the traditional paper craft, which I use for creating my work, can be applied to the Google Chrome browser. I made a quick pencil sketch first, choosing the two main elements for my theme: green jungle leaves for the top and a very colourful parrot to accompany it. Then I followed my usual working pattern and created a physical artwork out of edge glued paper stripes.

It's also the one that we hear the most about. Embarrassed that checking out <a href="http://icanhascheezburger.com/">lolcats</a> is showing up as your most popular browser pastime? Now you can bump up something <a href="http://www.stanford.edu/">dignified</a> and <a href="http://www.economist.com/">refined</a> into that top Most Visited slot with a simple click and drag of your mouse. You can pin website thumbnails to a particular spot so they don't disappear even if your browsing habits change. Last but not least, you can hide parts of the page if you don't want to see them using the layout buttons on the top right of the New Tab page.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcNrZbmRMf5926kJgwWcGwz8VWwxjrYlx5EeoLQi0i9bLOzoi1gEkM9jDuuMxVVfuZsPjRR4kOHhqwjz5bWT9Ce69fb4NRprleGDdcT90ke3gSW67tM_cZ0kElL9P-lWb3lBk0NeybOFOf/s1600-h/Dragging-Beta--Recent-Activities.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366306071120874418" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcNrZbmRMf5926kJgwWcGwz8VWwxjrYlx5EeoLQi0i9bLOzoi1gEkM9jDuuMxVVfuZsPjRR4kOHhqwjz5bWT9Ce69fb4NRprleGDdcT90ke3gSW67tM_cZ0kElL9P-lWb3lBk0NeybOFOf/s400/Dragging-Beta--Recent-Activities.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Rearrange website thumbnails on the New Tab page by clicking and dragging thumbnails</span><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj87BFMRTED_-o-RzkHmRgO5YhpmptbOp_cNYWqGD1MggXJYGykjUlSepFGSkZbcR-1I453mBc6hxaQIy08h9cdJaVA5HDTRJu7pyAmNHHUwsecZ0loHby0ilIbmBuf1a9Yqw2RxV6kGDvx/s1600-h/Pinning-Beta--Recent-Activities.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366307350790491586" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj87BFMRTED_-o-RzkHmRgO5YhpmptbOp_cNYWqGD1MggXJYGykjUlSepFGSkZbcR-1I453mBc6hxaQIy08h9cdJaVA5HDTRJu7pyAmNHHUwsecZ0loHby0ilIbmBuf1a9Yqw2RxV6kGDvx/s400/Pinning-Beta--Recent-Activities.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Pin websites thumbnails to a particular spot</span><br /><br /><br /><b>Try the latest and greatest Omnibox</b><br />The <a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?answer=95440&cbid=jp2kcar98v7k&src=cb&lev=index">Omnibox</a> is indisputably an important part of Google Chrome -- it helps you get to the sites you're looking for with just a few keystrokes. With this release, we've optimized the presentation of the drop-down menu and added little icons to help you distinguish between suggested sites, searches, bookmarks, and sites from your browsing history.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiI_Xtohn7clv_ecqRqXhAtKztThYd026v_P2UkW5VLwDPLjNTIhPmMQQ_i2_zOlwvUSwx-8eco3869nJNy-x3I_LKRXufNclN0JTSET7B1VGnz4QKssnaknsUzuM2l_u6C20AYCL_pHBsQ/s1600-h/Beta-Omnibox.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366308954010580466" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiI_Xtohn7clv_ecqRqXhAtKztThYd026v_P2UkW5VLwDPLjNTIhPmMQQ_i2_zOlwvUSwx-8eco3869nJNy-x3I_LKRXufNclN0JTSET7B1VGnz4QKssnaknsUzuM2l_u6C20AYCL_pHBsQ/s400/Beta-Omnibox.png" /></a><br /><br /><b><br />Tweak the chrome of Google Chrome</b><br />We built Google Chrome to be speedy, stable and more secure. Now we're adding a little bit of style by allowing you to add a theme to your browser. So, if you've been dying for a browser that reminds you of the <a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_baseball.html">Friendly Confines</a>, or if you just want the comfort of your <a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_quilt.html">favorite blanket</a> when you're browsing the web, now you can have it. Of course, if baseball or quilting isn't your thing, you can change the theme of your browser by visiting the <a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/index.html">Themes Gallery</a>. There is still some testing to do -- we're only launching some very basic themes and there are still some kinks to work out, but we will add more themes in the future as we roll this out to the stable version.<br /><br /><a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_desktop.html" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366310271018095858" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj75dWb91t0qvH5Z_JZEOazav1yztL2JImdYv0hGrjjyhVnqEshwmT9Nc0YU1CK1mpa-g4bYpScRnPwlPGqNox-6wPThPWSQj3YHCT2aD6zEQMNgTAhNEhZGUoXBpx_URmscofuBAQUZsOH/s400/theme_desktop.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">A sneak peek at the woody "Desktop" theme</span><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_grass.html" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366310817555511346" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQQmwu3R5MdnmmQ-6XWwjDuqXsrzuVaD8DHpEESsHuPnuzn3YcrYPU61E2w5tTaezqBfdFGNzrMSiQ-buTLE0_xHKjY_RnjzTlg2xge7cKFBXPQnQmPmBd1K2ZkYL0JHDG8nxDzE5I39k9/s400/Grass-Beta--Recent-Activities.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">...and your favorite website thumbnails basking on a grassy field</span><br /><br /><br /><b>Experience HTML5 capabilities </b><br />We're always trying to further push the things you can do in the browser. For example, we've started building <a href="http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/">HTML5</a> capabilities into this beta release, including video tag functionality and web workers.<br /><br /><br /><b>Speed, Speed, and more Speed</b><br />Beyond the improvements in JavaScript execution in this latest beta, there are a host of other improvements that should help Google Chrome make the most of your network connection. For example, when you open a new web page while other web pages are still loading, Google Chrome is now smarter about prioritizing the requests for the new page -- for instance, fetching text, images, and video for your new page -- ahead of the requests from the older pages. Loading pages on this beta release should also be faster than ever with DNS caching, more efficient DOM bindings, and using V8 for proxy auto-config.<br /><br /><br />To try out these new features, you need to get on the <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2009/01/google-chrome-release-channels.html">beta channel</a>. This means that your version of Google Chrome will regularly get updated with new speed enhancements, features, and bug fixes before most users see them. The beta channel provides a sneak preview of things to come with occasional rough edges, but it's a great way for us to quickly churn out new features and get your feedback.<br /><br />If you're interested in giving all these fresh new features a whirl, <a href="//www.google.com/intl/en/landing/chrome/beta/">download the beta version of Google Chrome</a>.<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">Posted by Glen Murphy, Software Engineer</span> <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </script> <noscript> There's a brand new <a href="//www.google.com/landing/chrome/beta/">beta</a> for you to try out today. As always, we continue to focus on speed, and this beta release shows over 30% improvement on both the <a href="http://v8.googlecode.com/svn/data/benchmarks/v5/run.html">V8</a> and <a href="http://www2.webkit.org/perf/sunspider-0.9/sunspider.html">SunSpider</a> benchmarks over our current stable <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2009/01/google-chrome-release-channels.html">channel</a> release. We've also improved two of the most loved and most used features of Google Chrome: the <a href="http://chrome.blogspot.com/2009/06/get-to-where-youre-going-faster.html">New Tab</a> page and the <a href="http://chrome.blogspot.com/2009/06/get-to-know-omnibox.html">Omnibox</a>. Plus, we decided to add a little bit of style by allowing you to deck out your browser with colors, patterns, and images.<br /><br /><b>Customize the new New Tab page</b><br />The New Tab page has been one of the most popular features in Google Chrome. It's also the one that we hear the most about. Embarrassed that checking out <a href="http://icanhascheezburger.com/">lolcats</a> is showing up as your most popular browser pastime? Now you can bump up something <a href="http://www.stanford.edu/">dignified</a> and <a href="http://www.economist.com/">refined</a> into that top Most Visited slot with a simple click and drag of your mouse. You can pin website thumbnails to a particular spot so they don't disappear even if your browsing habits change. Last but not least, you can hide parts of the page if you don't want to see them using the layout buttons on the top right of the New Tab page.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcNrZbmRMf5926kJgwWcGwz8VWwxjrYlx5EeoLQi0i9bLOzoi1gEkM9jDuuMxVVfuZsPjRR4kOHhqwjz5bWT9Ce69fb4NRprleGDdcT90ke3gSW67tM_cZ0kElL9P-lWb3lBk0NeybOFOf/s1600-h/Dragging-Beta--Recent-Activities.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366306071120874418" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcNrZbmRMf5926kJgwWcGwz8VWwxjrYlx5EeoLQi0i9bLOzoi1gEkM9jDuuMxVVfuZsPjRR4kOHhqwjz5bWT9Ce69fb4NRprleGDdcT90ke3gSW67tM_cZ0kElL9P-lWb3lBk0NeybOFOf/s400/Dragging-Beta--Recent-Activities.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Rearrange website thumbnails on the New Tab page by clicking and dragging thumbnails</span><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj87BFMRTED_-o-RzkHmRgO5YhpmptbOp_cNYWqGD1MggXJYGykjUlSepFGSkZbcR-1I453mBc6hxaQIy08h9cdJaVA5HDTRJu7pyAmNHHUwsecZ0loHby0ilIbmBuf1a9Yqw2RxV6kGDvx/s1600-h/Pinning-Beta--Recent-Activities.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366307350790491586" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj87BFMRTED_-o-RzkHmRgO5YhpmptbOp_cNYWqGD1MggXJYGykjUlSepFGSkZbcR-1I453mBc6hxaQIy08h9cdJaVA5HDTRJu7pyAmNHHUwsecZ0loHby0ilIbmBuf1a9Yqw2RxV6kGDvx/s400/Pinning-Beta--Recent-Activities.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Pin websites thumbnails to a particular spot</span><br /><br /><br /><b>Try the latest and greatest Omnibox</b><br />The <a href="//www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?answer=95440&cbid=jp2kcar98v7k&src=cb&lev=index">Omnibox</a> is indisputably an important part of Google Chrome -- it helps you get to the sites you're looking for with just a few keystrokes. With this release, we've optimized the presentation of the drop-down menu and added little icons to help you distinguish between suggested sites, searches, bookmarks, and sites from your browsing history.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiI_Xtohn7clv_ecqRqXhAtKztThYd026v_P2UkW5VLwDPLjNTIhPmMQQ_i2_zOlwvUSwx-8eco3869nJNy-x3I_LKRXufNclN0JTSET7B1VGnz4QKssnaknsUzuM2l_u6C20AYCL_pHBsQ/s1600-h/Beta-Omnibox.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366308954010580466" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiI_Xtohn7clv_ecqRqXhAtKztThYd026v_P2UkW5VLwDPLjNTIhPmMQQ_i2_zOlwvUSwx-8eco3869nJNy-x3I_LKRXufNclN0JTSET7B1VGnz4QKssnaknsUzuM2l_u6C20AYCL_pHBsQ/s400/Beta-Omnibox.png" /></a><br /><br /><b><br />Tweak the chrome of Google Chrome</b><br />We built Google Chrome to be speedy, stable and more secure. Now we're adding a little bit of style by allowing you to add a theme to your browser. So, if you've been dying for a browser that reminds you of the <a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_baseball.html">Friendly Confines</a>, or if you just want the comfort of your <a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_quilt.html">favorite blanket</a> when you're browsing the web, now you can have it. Of course, if baseball or quilting isn't your thing, you can change the theme of your browser by visiting the <a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/index.html">Themes Gallery</a>. There is still some testing to do -- we're only launching some very basic themes and there are still some kinks to work out, but we will add more themes in the future as we roll this out to the stable version.<br /><br /><a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_desktop.html" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366310271018095858" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj75dWb91t0qvH5Z_JZEOazav1yztL2JImdYv0hGrjjyhVnqEshwmT9Nc0YU1CK1mpa-g4bYpScRnPwlPGqNox-6wPThPWSQj3YHCT2aD6zEQMNgTAhNEhZGUoXBpx_URmscofuBAQUZsOH/s400/theme_desktop.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">A sneak peek at the woody "Desktop" theme</span><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/theme_grass.html" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366310817555511346" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQQmwu3R5MdnmmQ-6XWwjDuqXsrzuVaD8DHpEESsHuPnuzn3YcrYPU61E2w5tTaezqBfdFGNzrMSiQ-buTLE0_xHKjY_RnjzTlg2xge7cKFBXPQnQmPmBd1K2ZkYL0JHDG8nxDzE5I39k9/s400/Grass-Beta--Recent-Activities.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">...and your favorite website thumbnails basking on a grassy field</span><br /><br /><br /><b>Experience HTML5 capabilities </b><br />We're always trying to further push the things you can do in the browser. For example, we've started building <a href="http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/">HTML5</a> capabilities into this beta release, including video tag functionality and web workers.<br /><br /><br /><b>Speed, Speed, and more Speed</b><br />Beyond the improvements in JavaScript execution in this latest beta, there are a host of other improvements that should help Google Chrome make the most of your network connection. For example, when you open a new web page while other web pages are still loading, Google Chrome is now smarter about prioritizing the requests for the new page -- for instance, fetching text, images, and video for your new page -- ahead of the requests from the older pages. Loading pages on this beta release should also be faster than ever with DNS caching, more efficient DOM bindings, and using V8 for proxy auto-config.<br /><br /><br />To try out these new features, you need to get on the <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2009/01/google-chrome-release-channels.html">beta channel</a>. This means that your version of Google Chrome will regularly get updated with new speed enhancements, features, and bug fixes before most users see them.
