Google is currently working at a newer version of Google Chrome. Chrome 2.0 is still in the pre-beta phase, but you can already download and try it.
There are some major changes that make it worth to be used instead of the old version:
- Form autocomplete
- Full page zoom (press CTRL and scroll the mouse wheel)
- Autoscrolling by middleclicking the mouse
- Use different profiles (e.g. one for work and for for home with different bookmarks, …)
- Use Greasemonkey scripts (by adding “-enable-user-scripts” to the launch parameters)
- WebKit and JavaScript V8 engine updated
How to get the latest version:
- Download and install the old version of Google Chrome (if you don’t have it already)
- Download and run the Google Chrome Channel Changer
- Select “Dev” mode

- In Chrome, open the “About Google Chrome” dialog and click “Update Now”
- Restart Google Chrome
Now you have the latest version of Google Chrome installed! Have fun!
