Chrome 6 Hits Stable Release
Posted on 02. Sep, 2010 by Daniel Cawrey in News
The Google Chrome Releases blog has just posted that Chrome 6 has hit stable release. That means in a short time that everyone will be updated to version 6 and all of its new features. This is just in time for Chrome’s two year anniversary, by the way.
Chrome 6 is a big update; there is PDF integration, new syncing features and a revamped user interface for simplicity. It’s also faster, which is to be expected. You can read about all of the new features in some of the posts I’ve written about Chrome 6.
Now that Chrome 6 is in stable, we should expect a full release cycle to take six weeks. That means Chrome 7 should be available just around the time of Google TV and the Chrome Web Store’s launch in October.
The beta channel has also been updated to reflect some security updates. There were also a good amount of rewards that went out with this new release. Over $4,000 has been awarded to researchers who have found vulnerabilities in Chrome.
