Next Update of Google Chrome may add Full screen mode.

by chrome story



Absense of full screen mode was a complaint that was raised against Google Chrome when it was released.  ( I agree, there were many many more complains raied .. I am not forgetting any .. ). So, this bit of news is for those who were feeling so bad without full screen mode …  ( I don’t really use it … do you ? ) 

Next update of Google Chrome may have this feature added. It is already available on the Dev Channel ( Read test only version ). You can enable full screen mode on Google Chrome by pressing F11. So, wait for this update if you really miss this feature.  

To bring you more updates, I will be changing my Google Chrome install to the Beta channel. Y0u can expect much more news about updates here. Stay RSSed !!

Another bit of news, Google Chrome may have exntesions ( plugins ) support by May 2009. I found this news here, read on ..

Perhaps you should put up a post discussing how to switch to the beta channel, for those interested.
