America had often been discovered before Columbus, but it had always been hushed up - Oscar Wilde
GOOGLE has made an early test version of Chrome 2.0, available for download.
The update overhauls the way the browser handles HTTP and adds functionality such as auto-complete fields.
Released quietly via Google's Chrome developer channel, the early access code has an updated version of the WebKit rendering engine, and new network code to provide a cross-platform implementation of the HTTP protocol.
The new version, build 2.0.156.1, also implements auto-complete in text fields, a feature rival browsers have had for some time. It also now correctly implements the zoom feature so that everything on the page scales together, according to Google's release notes.
Google said the new version of Chrome supports faster and more reliable Safe Browsing that uses the disk less often, while users can open new browser Windows with different profiles for different uses. µ
Chrome has always been blazing fast but it's nice to see Google are still adding features, looks like add-ons are not far away now.
