Chrome 3 Beta version available

Google employee Fiona Chong of the Google Chrome team announced the immediate release of Google Chrome 3 beta. Its main advantage is the speed improvement in its JavaScript core.

As always, we continue to focus on speed, and this beta release shows over 30% improvement on both the V8 and SunSpider benchmarks over our current stable channel release. We’ve also improved two of the most loved and most used features of Google Chrome: the New Tab page and the Omnibox. Plus, we decided to add a little bit of style by allowing you to deck out your browser with colors, patterns, and images.
