Why Stop at 8? Google Chrome 9 Details Are Here

    Why Stop at 8? Google Chrome 9 Details Are Here


    Posted: 18 Oct 2010
    What happens when you start pushing new browser milestones every month or so? Apparently, features get pushed back as well.

    According to cNET, Google has cut off a bunch of features that were originally planned for Google Chrome 8 and is now making its way to Chrome 9.

    What was axed?
    Hardware acceleration
    Hardware based video decoding
    Large layers support
    Opacity fixes
    Canvas issues fix for 2D graphics
    CSS reflections, drop shadows and masks support

    However, as new Google Chrome branches are usually released every 6 weeks, it’s not a big delay after all.

    In 2012, Version OVER 9000!!!! will be out...

    I have to say, if I had to choose a browser except Firefox, it would be Chrome.

    Lol. Hehehe. I disagree though, Opera is also extremely good, though it always seems to have odd rendering issues...
