Google Chrome Download and Screenshots

Tuesday, 02 September 2008

Later today Google will enter the browser marketplace and you will be able to download what looks like a ground breaking new web browser called 'Google Chrome'. It appears to have some very nice features and if Chromes multiple process architecture can beat the way Firefox hangs on some web pages, and it doesn't suffer from the flood of memory leaks that Firefox does then I'm all for it.

Download Google Chrome later today: gears.google.com/chrome/  http://www.google.com/chrome
(gears download page is not working)

Learn more about Google Chrome by reading the: Google Chrome comic book
(it's quite long)

What will Google Chrome look like? Check out Philipp Lenssens screen grabs from the gears website

I donwloaded it this morning from http://www.memac.com, i'm not sure if it still there, gchrome is amazing!!

Umpitygrumpity

I saw that there is a download available at that memac site, but honestly, I wouldn't trust some thing like that. It could be a virus, or a counterfit, or a version that's been tampered with.

I'll just wait for the official release and get it directly from google Thanks.

Achille

Yes, still available...
By the way, how can I know in which Countries Chrome will be available today?

bacspasm

it is still available but the server is not sending the file right now. I plan on scrubbing the file when I download it..

Nils

They really should announce a time of release, not just the day.. I've been wating all day now! : P

devloy

me too here, been waiting since 12am.. its already 10hrs, I missed the hiccup though when it was accidently made live at gears.google.com/chrome..

I hope its available where I am at (outside USA) :-D

JW

Teddie

Yeehaw!!! 19.56 GMT Chrome download is now active.

Teddie

OK. 20.02 is anyone else finding the EULA Accept and Install button doesn't do anything?

Nicke

I've got the exact same problem as you Teddie :/

Waiting for an altenative link (and a secure one)

Teddie

Ok. There is a Javascript error in the download page. Here is the correct URL for the ChromeSetup.exe. Cut and paste into your browser location bar. Enjoy :-)

http://dl.google.com/update2/installers/ChromeSetup.exe

Try this download page it works: http://www.google.com/chrome

Hey this is hilarious, I just used Chrome from the download URL I posted above http://www.google.com/chrome to debug the gears.google.com/chrome download page:

JavaScript Debugger
attached to Google Chrome for Windows - Terms and Conditions Agreement
uncaught exception ReferenceError: _GU_isOneClickAvailable is not defined

Nice feature. I like Chrome so far but there is a bug with the back button closing the window when there are no more previous pages, it also shut when I re-entered a previously visited URL.

Rob

Just as a warning Google Chrome will currently not work with Symantec Endpoint Protection installed..unless you remove the application protection piece.

Matt Whelan

Anyone tried logging into Microsoft Adcentre with Chrome... I'm sure that its completely by accident that Adcentre wasn't one of the 'millions of websites' Google tested it with. You cant actually get past the login page, hehe!

Sharp

You cynical...

To be fair Adcenter wasn't FF compatible to start with either. :)

Download Google Chrome

Google Chrome is the best...
