Google [update]-Channel Switcher - Google Chrome v1.1 Available

[Rob]

Hey guys, version 1.1 of Google Chrome is available and it allows you to choose between two different update settings:

• Beta updates - get beta releases of Chrome that are considered pretty stable but still "ahead of the curve"
• Dev - the latest features and bug fixes. Using this will help Chrome improve faster as they can track more bugs across a wider scale

You can get the Beta and Dev Versions HERE



Here is the explanation of the new updates:

The first update available through the program, build 1251, is geared more for programmers and willing guinea pigs than for those who merely are curious.


Build 1251 fixes bugs with areas including Microsoft's Silverlight software, tab behavior, video playback with YouTube and other Flash players, and scalable vector graphics, and it suppresses full-text indexing of sites accessed with encrypted Web connections, according to the release notes. It also enables two switches that can be set when the software boots that let users activate two developmental features, new technology for networking and for managing Chrome windows.

Once you choose Beta or Dev you can upgrade by choosing the About Chrome menu from the Chrome Toolbar, where it will tell you when there are updates.

I would recommend our developers for themes and plugins get this so we can stay one step ahead of the game!

JUST A REMINDER... THE CASUAL CHROME USER WON'T REALLY CARE ABOUT THIS!

Hmm, very interesting. Looks like Google has been hard at work fixing a bunch of bugs. Looking good!

Thanks Rob.

OK mine says 0.2.152.1 not 1.1?

[The Peanut Master]

Mine does too, I think that's the "official" name for this version.

[Charlie]

Okay thanks I wanted to be sure it is a bit misleading to say 1.1 if this is the case? Just a thought. But not Robs fault.

[The Peanut Master]

Yea, it's definitely very confusing.

[Pronation]

So Chrome won't autoupdate from .29 to this version?

[The Peanut Master]

No, since this version isn't technically an official new beta build, it's more of a new developer build.

[Pronation]

Alright, thanks Peanut.
