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.

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

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.

Hmm, too bad there doesn't seem to be any tab support in the icon area like IE8 has. Nonetheless, this is a welcome addition, I've actually switch to IE8 for minutes at a time just for this feature alone, I'm very attracted to newness. :P

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.
