Google Releases Chrome 18

Google released the latest public release of its popular browser today, Chrome 18, with speed enhancements and improved 2D and 3D graphics rendering.

With Chrome’s most recent Stable channel release, we’ve sped up graphics and drawing performance for users on capable hardware, and enabled fancier 3D content for other users on older computers. Give Chrome a spin to see just how good the modern web can look. And if the nuts and bolts of graphics make your heart flutter, check out more technical details over on the Chromium blog.

Crome 18 is available immediately from Google’s public download page, and existing users of Chrome will be automatically updated to the latest version.
