Please note that there are at least four versions of Chrome available at the moment, and this review only addresses the 'stable' branch, intended for general use. 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. 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.Ĭhrome 23 represents a major milestone for the browser, but those expecting to see dramatic changes in major version-point updates will be disappointed. It's powerful enough to drive its own operating system, Chrome OS.

Google Chrome has matured from a lightweight and fast browsing alternative into an innovative, standard-bearing browser that people love.
