Google Chrome Update Adds Speed, 3D, and Apps
There's a new stable build of Google's Chrome browser available today, and according to the sultan of search, it's the fastest build yet. But speed isn't the only addition. The latest Chrome version adds a couple of other goodies previously only available on beta builds, including WebGL, Chrome Instant, and the Chrome Web Store, Google announced in a blog post.
"WebGL is a new technology which brings hardware-accelerated 3D graphics to the browser," Google said. "With WebGL in Chrome, you can experience rich 3D experiences right inside the browser with no need for additional software, Curious about the three-dimensional possibilities? Try out these demos to experience the power of WebGL in the latest stable version of Chrome."
Faster browsing comes in the form of Chrome Instant, which begins loading frequently visited webpages as soon as you start typing the URL, provided you enable it in the Basics tabs of Chrome's options. And finally, Google said the Chrome Web Store is now open to all Chrome users living in the U.S.

Just updated. I appreciate any updates to browsing tech, so we'll see if it makes things "quicker".
