Just two weeks after Google Chrome's birthday, the search engine giant has unleashed Google Chrome version 3. It’s faster, supports HTML5, and still does not run on the Mac OS.
While the new stable release doesn’t introduce anything groundbreaking (unless you just love custom themes), it does provide some important tweaks. The biggest one focuses onGoogle’sGoogle #1 obsession: speed. This is Chrome’sChrome bread and butter. The search company claims that the new browser is 25% faster at executing JavaScript than Chrome V2, among other speed fixes.

While you may not immediately notice Chrome’s increased speed, it will be tough to pass by the new Chrome Tab page, which now sports a new, cleaner layout of your most recently visited and bookmarked websites. It takes out the right hand sidebar and extends your most visited websites across the entire browser tab.
There are a few other updates of note. First is more HTML5 support, which help embed video and audio without the need for Flash . Another big one is Chrome Themes, which were available in the development and beta releases but now make their official debut.







While we appreciate new releases, we still are waiting for Google ChromeGoogle Chrome for Macs. It’s surprising it hasn’t come after a full year on Windows OS. Yes, there is a buggy development version, but we want the real thing already.
