Arrow All About Google Chrome: Links, Secrets, Tips-n-Tricks, Themes, etc.


Hello everyone

I'm starting this thread so that we can have a single place to share everything regarding to this new web browser from Google as sharing these things in the "Technology News" section will not be a good idea.

In this topic, you can share tips-n-tricks, themes, secrets, anything related to Chrome, which you think will be useful for all members.

So here are a few things which I would like to share:

Chrome Download Link

Chrome Offline Installer (FULL)

Chrome Portable Version (No Need to Install)

Chrome Secret "About" Pages and Easter Egg

Use Chrome in Linux using WINE

Create and Install Custom Themes in Chrome

Looks good, pretty fast....BUT, no ad blocking.

Back to Firefox....till ad blocking on Chrome is possible.

I think Google will not introduce ad blocking as they will loose big bucks through adsense!!

Anyone knows how to enable WYSIWYG editing in chrome for vBulletin forums ?
For example, our own forum. In the post reply section (advanced), its supposed to be possible to see formatting as you type.

^^That's not possible in Chrome AFAIK.

@ax3- I think the 425 KB installer is the online installer, i.e, it D/Ls the required files from the net to the HDD. The 8 MB installer is the full offline installer AFAIK.
