Google Chrome has matured from a lightweight and fast browsing
alternative into an innovative, standard-bearing browser that people
love. It's powerful enough to drive its own operating system, Chrome OS.
The browser that people can use today, Chrome 23, offers highly
competitive features, including synchronization, autofill, and standards
compliance, and maintains Google's reputation for building one of the
fastest browsers available.
Chrome 23 represents a major milestone for the browser, but those expecting to see dramatic changes in major version-point updates will be disappointed. For a while now, Google has been pushing features over what it calls milestone numbers in a rapid-release cycle, which means that as soon as new features are usable in the beta version of Chrome, Google will likely push them to all users in the stable edition.
Chrome's installation process is simple and straightforward. If you download the browser from Google's Web site, it will ask you if you'd like to anonymously submit usage statistics to the company. Although you used to be able to toggle this easily, Chrome now splits up the anonymous data tracking options into multiple categories. You can toggle these from the Preferences menu (the three-line icon to the right of the location bar) under Settings, Advanced Settings, then Privacy Options. Depending on your processor, the installation process should take less than 2 minutes.
