Google Chrome 5 Beta
If you’re using the stable version of Google Chrome, the latest beta release (Google Chrome 5.0.375.29 for Windows, Mac and Linux) will be a pleasant surprise. Here are 10 things you should try after installing Chrome 5 beta:
1. Google Chrome remembers zoom settings for each domain. Go to http://www.nytimes.com, zoom using Ctrl+ or Ctrl-, close the tab and reopen it.
2. Remove individual items from the history. Go to the History tab (Ctrl+H), click on “Edit items”, select the pages you want to remove and click on “Remove selected pages”.
3. The new bookmark manager is an HTML page that opens in a new tab. It looks better than the previous manager and it has the advantage that extensions will be able to add new features.
4. Google Chrome can synchronize themes and preferences, in addition to bookmarks.
