Google Chrome is one of the fastest browsers on the web. The basis for this article is what is to come with the new Google Chrome. We all know of Google Chrome and how great it is but now Chrome 6 will offer so much more. Google’s new beta version has hit a point at which no new features will be added and the current features are in the testing phase. The features will be inspected for there effectiveness and if need be improvements and changes will be made.
Some of the new things to expect with Google Chrome 6 include extension syncing, a new menu button, UI changes, and native PDF integration. With extension syncing you will be able to choose which things such as bookmarks, you would like to sync from your computer. The new menu button will contain the browser’s most popular menu functions. It will be located at the right of the URL bar. This has changed from the once tool and page buttons. The UI changes include a less cluttered new tab page, changes in default skin and a new padlock icon that indicates a secure HTTPS connection. The PDF integration allows you to view, search and navigate in a tab much like a web page. Unfortunately some things didn’t quite make it on this time. These include the tabs on the side option as well as the full-screen HTML5 video playback options. With these entire new feature what is not to be excited about with the new Google Chrome 6.
I think the new features that Google has added to its new version of Google Chrome are great. It is already the fastest so why not make it the best! I like the fact that they have improved the most used features such as the menu button and that they de-cluttered the tab page. I think that those where very wise choices on their part.
