We have already discussed how to install google chrome using wine .Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all Internet users to experience the web. The Chromium codebase is the basis for Google’s Chrome browser.

The Chromium Daily Builds PPA has been keeping me up to date with the latest version of Chromium, the open source browser behind Google Chrome. Google recently released the first official Google Chrome for Linux beta. When I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10, I switched from Chromium to the Chrome beta.

CodeWeavers, a company which sells a proprietary version of Wine, has released an easily installable package for running Google Chrome on Linux. CrossOver Chromium is a modified version of Chromium (the open source code which runs Google Chrome) combined with CodeWeaver's modified version of Wine.

Google introduced the beta version of its open source Chrome browser nearly two months ago, and issued its third update to the beta yesterday.

Google has indicated it will offer native code browser applications from the Chrome web apps store that's due to launch later this year. The Chrome Web Store is designed for use with Google's Chrome browser and the company's upcoming Chrome OS, and it would appear that the store will make its debut when the OS hits netbooks in the fall.

Netstat -vat: "A 64-bit version of the Google Chrome browser is now ready, but Windows users will still have some time to wait for their version."

This is something I have never heard of. I was trying to install Google Chrome in Ubuntu and in the download page a small note came into my notice. It goes something like this "Installing Google Chrome will add the Google repository so your system will automatically keep Google Chrome up to date".

A few weeks ago, Google announced that Chrome OS will be ready for release this fall. Like many Google products, Chrome OS is designed to be a game changer. There are no desktop applications, as we typically think of them. Instead, the entire user experience happens within the browser. Naturally, some people think this is ridiculous while others see it as the natural evolution of technology.

Reports of the popular Linux distro ditching Firefox get clarified.
