Latest Google Chrome dev build adds Windows 7 jumplist support
As you can see in the screenshot above, Chrome's jumplist works just like any other in Windows 7. Recently browsed sites are listed below those you pin to the list. Space is also reserved for quick access to recently closed tabs and opening new windows - both normal and incognito.
Quick access to (I might as well say it) porn mode is a welcome change. Sure, you could set up it yourself by adding a command line argument to your Chrome shortcut, but this is a much more elegant solution. That's assuming, of course, you're on Windows 7 and can take advantage of the feature.
Grab the build from the Developer Channel page.
I don't know if this is a labor of love or merely the brainchild of four very gifted games designers, but Level Up is a really weird mash-up of gaming elements that you have probably never seen in a Flash game before.
Let's start with the premise itself: Groundhog Day meets Memento. The game experience revolves around 'days': you explore the world and the clock slowly ticks towards the evening.

I read about this on the big fix/feature update list for the dev channel. Super exciting! I've been waiting for this one. I've already used it several times. Chrome FTW.

I bet mozilla won't add support in firefox until version 3.6.

If you want to open a new incognito window, the keyboard shortcut control-shift-N will do it.

I'm crusing along on the BETA channel and am loving the speed compared to IE. I will probably switch over fulltime to Chrome once bookmark syncing is fully implemented.
