What is Google Chrome : The Browser and OS
Google chrome was announced initially as a browser, a fast, and elegant browser. Later, Google revealed their plans for developing a complete operating system named Google Chrome, for netbooks initially, and then for laptops and desktops. It will be based on the Linux kernal.

You should post about dragging tabs side by side. I haven’t seen that in any browser before and it’s really useful.

And post about some bookmarklets because it seems Chrome is flirting with this bookmarklets.
http://dev.chromium.org/user-experience/bookmarklets
This is what I have
“Rename this tab…”
javascript:(function() {document.title=prompt(“Enter Page Title”,document.title);})();
“Email this page…”
javascript:location.href=’mailto:?SUBJECT=’+document.title+’&BODY=’+escape(location.href)
To change the MailTo client to GMail in Windows XP, (this opens a Chrome app window)
I opened up explorer
From the menu select Tools> Options> File Types
Locate URL:MailTo Protocol
Click Advanced
With the ‘open’ action selected, click edit
Paste this action.
“C:\Documents and Settings\Admin\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe” –app=https://mail.google.com/mail?extsrc=mailto&url=%1
I don’t know how much weight you have on the Chrome developers but I think there should be an optional AutoFill buton like the Home button and open my history even when I’m not connected to the Internet.
And I agree with about everything on this suggestion page.

thanks for sharing. I will look in to this
«“Rename this tab…”
javascript:(function() {document.title=prompt(“Enter Page Title”,document.title);})();»
It doesn’t work. Even this way:
javascript:document.title=prompt(“Enter Page Title”,document.title);
As mentioned on twitter.
Thanks for any help you may be able to give.
I have a problem when trying to use Friendfeed on Chrome.Chrome freezes when I click on a link and whilst this briefly happened with Twitter when I first installed Chrome,it has not happened with anything else.If you have any ideas about how to iron this out i would appreciate it.By the way technically I am on the novice side when it comes to software.
usually, restarting should fix these kind of issues … hmm since it’s still being developed, the best thing would be report a bug .. which you did
I will wait for more from you.
A full blog and forum on Chrome, ahem! Subscribed to your feeds. All the best.
Thank you !!
Would love to see you bring us more in depth news on Chrome OS such as a better how to resource for Chrome os features. the help forum is cool, but you are very good at telling the chrome story. so within your help page it would be cool to get striate to (howto’s ) on doc’s calenders, earth, 3-D sketch up library excreta. Google has so many things going but seeing it as a cloud OS is sometimes lost in all the excitement.
hey ! thanks for the tip ! will keep working hard to bring you the best here !
and about the forum ..
I am not getting enough time to manage it
if few people among you can jump in and engage with the community, it will be fun !

I’ve successfully added web apps to my canary build of google chrome, but aside from the large icons, there is no difference between the apps and the websites they link to. There is still an omni bar and the tab background looks the same (not the short one that I see in all the pictures). What’s the deal??
there is some more things being developed … but, most of them will be like a normal website,
differences may be, it can be purchased, can have subscriptions etc, and soon, at least on the chrome os, it can access native hardware to increase performance etc ..
Right…but I still have the Omni-bar, and the tabs look the same. Have you tried this on canary?
I love your blog, keep up the great work!
thank you very much
Where can i download the Os?
download it from hexxeh’s website ! please check out latest blog posts for more info !
Hi Dinu
Here’a the Wayanad info you asked for!
We stayed at the Government Guest house at Sultan Bathery, Wayanad. Ph: 04936220225
It’s a sprawling bungalow, with palatial rooms, palatial gardens and a very friendly staff! They made sure we were comfortable, served us the yummiest of food and didn’t even shush us while we were singing away at full throttle close to midnight.
We stayed in those huge rooms for just Rs 250/- per room!
Check out the post here…for some pics of the Guest House.

Have a FAB time at Wayanad!
Best regards,
Scorpria
thanks a tonne !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the interesting blog!
I wanted to give you some advice for imporvement:
1. Please adhere punctuation rules when you write something. Punctuation symbols like “!”, “?”, “:”, “,” should always go immediately after the word. They should not be divided by a space. For example:
«Lorem ipsum !» — incorrect, «Lorem ipsum!» — correct;
«Lorem , ipsum ,» — incorrect, «Lorem, ipsum,» — correct;
«Lorem ( ipsum )» — incorrect, «Lorem (ipsum)» — correct;
«Lorem ipsum ?» — incorrect, «Lorem ipsum?» — correct;
If you think that’s not important — you are wrong.
2. Pleas use more readable fonts for timestamps of your blog posts. Now you use the Lobster face as I understood. In combination with upper case, light gray color and small size it becomes absolutely unreadable.
Thanks. Hope you’ll understand me right…
thanks a lot! changing the font now
Oh, yes! I see it now!
on the canary version of chrome, u can move around the app icons in the new tab page
yep
its there in the dev version too 
In Chrome Canary Build, there is a new about:flags entry. I think this is the mode, which Google used on the All about Chrome Keynote!
“Compact Navigation
Adds a “Hide the toolbar” entry to the tabstrip’s context menu. Use this to toggle between always displaying the toolbar (default) and only opening it as a drop down box as needed.”
I like it!
2 Updates:
Chrome Dev Channel is now on 13.x but no entry for changelog is done on chromereleases.blogspot.com
and in about:flags there is a new entry: “Web-Audio
Enables the Web-Audio-API”
thanks !I saw that update .. will watch it closely
