Google News : Browser News : What’s New In Google Chrome 10?

 

Google Chrome 10 stable has released and it comes with a surprising number of new features

New Setting Interface. The options dialog is now a web page that opens in a new tab. [screenshot]

Default page zoom value. Go to the Options page and select "Under the hood" (or paste chrome://settings/advanced in the address bar) and change the "page zoom" value.

Synchronize passwords option is not enabled by default and it requires your confirmation before saving your passwords to your Google Account. There's even an extra security feature that lets you choose a custom encryption passphrase, so that your passwords are safe even if someone guesses your Google Account password. [screenshot]

Reorder the apps from the new tab page using drag and drop. [screenshot]

New V8 JavaScript engine, named "Crankshaft" is 66% faster than Chrome 9.

Hardware acceleration for Web videos. Traditionally, web browsers relied entirely on the CPU to render web page content. Chrome 10 can take advantage of the GPU. You can test it on YouTube's HTML5 site.

Adobe Flash plugin is sanboxed in Chrome 10 for Windows. This is one of the reasons why Google decided to bundle the plugin with Chrome.

Run in the background. Apps and extensions that use the new background feature can continue to run in the background — even if the user closes down all of Chrome's windows. Gmail's notification will now work even after closing Chrome. To find all the extensions and apps that support backgrounding, click "view background pages" in Chrome's menu and check the highlighted items.

Chrome disables certain outdated plugins (Adobe Reader, Java or QuickTime) by default and provides an option to update to the latest version.

Google has released Google Chrome 10 to the stable channel, making the update available to everyone. Last month, Google released the first public beta of Chrome 10, which showed off the browser's updated V8 JavaScript engine known as "Crankshaft," which offers a boost in performance of no less than 66% in Google's V8 benchmark suite compared to Chrome 9.0 Stable. Google revised the settings interface, and a handful of other features.
Chrome 10 also puts Adobe Flash in the sandbox on Windows machines, includes encrypted password sync in Chrome Sync by default, supports hardware acceleration for HTML 5 video (while removing support for the H.264 codec), as well as for background WebApps, webNavigation extension API, and improved malware reporting. post by cio and winmatrix.
