Google Chrome Web Browser

Google Chrome has done it! The official test period, the beta stage is over and now it can get going.
While there has been at the beginning of some bad news and some technical hurdles to take, now is the first fully-fledged version of Google Chrome but online.

The ghosts of the user has entered in to the beta version. These may be some Google Chrome browser in the balance throw. The browser is not just super fast, but also visually a delight.

Quite in a blue, he revolutionized the software design, it stands on a strong program with many bar icons waived. Even the years as popular search engines in the field, there are not chrome. A search engine search takes the user into the address bar before. This of course works with the in-house search engine.

As each user already in testing the beta version was noticed: Google Chrome is simply faster. Faster, in fact, than any other browser on the market. As might be expected, Google Chrome is working hand in hand with other Google software solutions. Thus, for example, when users calendar and the mail service will benefit from the synergy.

Through a special Incognito mode, users should be able to fairly unknown by the World Wide Web surfing. That this is never entirely possible, all users should be aware. But at least regulate the developers of Google as much as possible to the safety screw. The Incognito mode builds to a phishing filter and the fact that historical data and cookies while browsing not be saved.

With the persistence of the beta version of Chrome, Google has now officially the place and must mature in the league of major browser. It remains to be seen whether he is permanently against Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Opera can enforce. One is Google Chrome at the moment but surely. And that's the speed record.

Chrome OS, the future operating system Google's three questions

Google Chrome the operating system, What is it?
Operating system (OS, operating system or VF) is the interface between man and machine. It is usually based on a number of other core layer stack to the application layer. Management of resources (memory, processor), dialogue and equipment (through the driver), including a document management system and graphical user interface ... the operating system package has a sacred mission to complete, and users with little or no, if awareness of all the best.

Google has been involved in the field of mobile phone operating system with the robot system, as well as the Web browser and chromium. And Google said that its new target market netBook, these micro-computer cheap Ultraportables. Chrome the operating system but will be running a wide range of construction equipment, such as small-scale smart phones (with ARM processor), a computer lounge (processor series X86). Lower level, it will depend on the Linux kernel. In the application layer, it will use derivatives Chrome. Because Google said, "for application developers, network is the platform."


Why Chrome the operating system may be a turning point?
Google said: "The operating system [current] This, in turn, has developed an Internet browser when there is no network. Google will have to say," Windows is has become a supply ", otherwise he would not take the other way .

Google promises? "Speed, simplicity and security, through the network access" in a few seconds, little or no virus or machine, once started down past the first few weeks after the installation of the honeymoon.

The netBook is a perfect target, Google. Weak, many people still in the adaptation version of Windows XP, this is the weight started to recognize. Linux has been drilled, but not the same as the original expectations.

Success in this part of the other opportunities will open up Google, the user will benefit from a little competition. Microsoft still has 87% market share of the computer operating system (for 9-1%, Apple and Linux to figures from the global market share statistics).


Why Chrome the operating system may fail?
Network as an application platform, our objective is to close to Google and all the supporters, "cloud computing." Do not know the network / applications or loans (county), Hello, the recent collapse of Gmail, anyone? Of course, the operating system can make use of chrome Google Gear, or the future of HTML 5, opened the door to offline mode utliser tools such as Gmail or Google Documents do not connect to the Internet. However, even on Apple's iPhone has finally dropped in and abandoned the idea, the only Web applications, many have been installed in the local.

If it is almost time to make the time between coffee, Vista starts, you can surf the Web, a number of Linux distribution has been reduced by a period of 10 seconds. Intel's even more than the target operating system and two micro-credit cards to play some "real-time desktop.

Now, we do not know much about the Google project. Minimalism at its core allows users to connect to your iPod to synchronize your computer?

Google Chrome Installation and Updates

Since our public launch in September, a number of Google Chrome users, a number of issues, our installation and update process. We tried to answer most of them in our Help Center, but because many of you may not visit the Help Center, this post attempts to provide some background, in-depth understanding of our current installation and update process.

When we began to explore ways for our installer, we made a number of clear objectives:

● With the new browser vulnerability appeared on a regular basis, allowing users to check out the burden of security updates.
● Non-administrators who allow users to install Google Chrome.
● Allow updates occur automatically in the background, even if Google Chrome is in use. The next time you open Google Chrome, it can simply start using the latest version.
● As the smallest user interface (UI) of the Google Chrome to limit or eliminate, as far as possible the installation interface.
● Update should be as small as possible. There is a security patch is a small, quick download and should not be the need for a complete installation.
● Uninstall should clean and made clear the changes in Google Chrome, as far as possible.

After reading the available options, we found that no one will give us all things, we hope, we have decided to write our own installation process.

Installation
We believe that the installation of Google Chrome has been made very simple. When you run the installer, not the screen, jumping or confusing options. And you install the first time the UI window, allows you to enter data from your current default browser. Some people (especially those who use Windows XP, not Windows Vista's) confused by the choice of our installed in the user profile directory under program files. There are several reasons, we choose the user profile directory:
Anyone can install the Google Chrome, not just the administrator.
In Windows Vista does not have any safety tips during the installation process. If you are running as a non-elevated Administrator, you can still install Google Chrome, without having to enter an administrator password. But we still need to ask for a password, so that Google Chrome the default browser, as a result of how the requirements of Windows Vista browser applications registered.
You can choose to install or uninstall Google Chrome will not affect other people who use the same computer.

Update
Google Chrome automatically updates itself with the help of Google update, Google is also used in other products, including Google, dialogue, gear, and Google Earth plug-ins. Use Google to update means that we can use existing services, has to take care of many problems in the auto-update:

● Different channels to date, each country has its own timetable and an updated version of chrome.
● The context of updating the software without any annoying dialogue.
● Acting in support of good, able to handle a variety of proxy configuration download and install payloads.
● There is only one example of Google more than Google to update the management plan to install on the machine.

Google updates used to enable us to promote incremental change relatively quickly - we have released 14 updates in 3 months between the release and we take the test label.

Chrome - information about bugs

Google Chrome has only just available for download and the bugs are already known. That is not surprising when you consider that it is a beta version. Google Chrome has chosen to use the browser as soon as possible available for download and on the basis of comments from users to make improvements. Below is a list of the bugs so far known.

All tabs crash
Google in the launch of Chrome that Chrome different from other browsers by the Special crash protection. 1 tab would crash, then you can separate tab without closing the other tabs that you would be lost.

Unfortunately, this is not always to go. In certain urls (web addresses you type in the address bar) crashes the browser. This can also happen by a tikfoutje of the user or even by using your mouse on a hyperlink to go on this way up.

This all tabs closed and you immediately get the following error:


This vulnerability can not be exploited by malicious, it's just very annoying. You have all the information in your open tabs are lost. If you use Google Chrome as a browser and you would like an example of this bug see then go to the example of this bug in Google Chrome.

Strange detail is that when you with the tab key to navigate through the website, you do not have problems with such links, even when you click them. You just get a message that the page could not be found.


The second bug is discussed is dangerous. Google Chrome is based partly on the Safari browser from Apple. When Safari was some time ago a known vulnerability. This leak can be a website and download files from the Internet on your desktop set. In Safari, this vulnerability already fixed, but Google Chrome is based on an older version of Safari in which the leak has not yet been resolved.

The researcher Raffe Aviv in Israel discovered that the leak even more risk if it combined with a recently discovered bug in Java. This allows certain files directly on the user's computer.

Other browsers such as Internet Explorer and Firefox give an immediate message that the download is blocked for security reasons. Preview this tapijtbom bug.

Solutions
At this moment there is no new version of Chrome which bugs are fixed. Google has indicated that the bugs in the next version of Chrome will be remedied. If true this version is not yet known.

Google Chrome, modern, fast and stable
Browser Google Chrome is faster, more stable and designed for modern surfing. The browser is remarkably fast. Also, the browser capable to gaming, it can do much more actions simultaneously, and long runs as soon as no longer fixed. Moreover, the browser designed so that if something goes wrong on a page, only that tab crashes, other open tabs are not fixed.

How secure is Google Chrome?
The creators of Google Chrome, the browser designed to pages you visit, no longer from your surfing habits to prepare and steal. This means that if you have multiple tabs open, they do not communicate and therefore no data can be exchanged. Magnificent and completely out of our time. And if something goes wrong on a Web page, then your other tabs remain unaffected just because they are not related to each other. That I find a great improvement.

Google Chrome 2.0: upgrade of 1.0 Chrome

Two prominent features of Google Chrome is the speed and simplicity. Simple to the people of the version 1 that lack the features that the poor and it difficult to imagine there is a Web browser was born in 2009. "Chrome missing out many features that probably out, a browser 2009 must be filled automatically as not missing information, see the full screen and features wide open," hang research to IDG. Therefore, Google has decided to close the gap in functionality to the browser first-hand with your browser competitor. Manufacturers have added the full-screen (full screen), not automatically fill in missing information, the ability to remove the thumbnail image from the "New Tab". In addition, Chrome 2.0 also updated patch many bugs and improve performance part.

However, Chrome 2.0 interface and has the identical operation as the first. The new features too small birds and that, if not it's in Google, most users will not recognize the existence of them. You can easily find the full-screen by press F11 to activate it, or selecting the icon from this perhaps the toolbar. However, it is almost invisible effect, because when in the full-screen, all the browser controls are disappeared: no tab, no toolbar, nothing at all.

You will not be able to type the web address to visit. Can not access the website has been checked, except page boot Chrome. You must do everything through shortcuts on the keyboard or mouse to the menu. Google excuse that this mode is designed specifically for video files and presentations. It but any program or video PowerPoint are supported and full-screen, so why should this feature exists is also a big question.

Finally, the ability to delete immediately from the thumbnail "New Tab" is a more practical one. Click the "Remove thumbnail, then select the thumbnail that you want to remove, finally click on the" Implementation ". It is funny if you have less than 4 thumbnail and just want to Delete 1 thumbnail, Chrome 2.0 will ... delete all clean all four. (This is probably an error by the browser that Google needs to fix soon). In addition, you can not rearrange the thumbnail on the page
