Chrome Web Store Appears in Chrome 7

Posted on 30. Aug, 2010 by Daniel Cawrey in News, Tips

The newest version of Chrome 7 now includes the Chrome Web Store icon when you open a new tab.

This screenshot was taken from the 7.0.510.0 release of Chromium, which you can download from here. When you click on the icon it leads you to the official Chrome Extensions site. When the Chrome Web Store is launched, extensions and webapps will both be featured on the site.

The Chrome Web Store is expected to launch in October and will feature webapps and web games. There is a developer preview available right now if you’re interested in creating your own webapps.
