Customer Reviews:
  1. Good HTML5 starter book if you already know HTML4, CSS, & JavaScript

Google Pours Chrome Into Android

Google (Nasdaq: GOOG) has brought its Chrome Web browser to the Android Market.

A beta edition of the browser is available from the app shop now for free, but since its operation is restricted to the latest version of the mobile operating system, Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), only about 1 percent of Android's millions of users will be able to take the software for a test drive.

Making the browser a downloadable app means users don't have to wait for phone makers to install the browser on their hardware. On the other hand, they still have to wait for those phone makers to upgrade their handsets to Ice Cream Sandwich.

In addition to speed and simplicity, Chrome for Android beta has synchronization features that allow the user to seamlessly access tabs and bookmarks across devices. For instance, a tab open in desktop Chome can be accessed in Android Chrome. However, because that feature has privacy implications, it's turned off by default.
