谷歌chrome历史版

Just over three months after launching their browser, Google has removed the beta tag from Chrome. This might be the quickest a Google product has dropped the beta from its moniker — Gmail, for example, ~~was in beta for almost 3 years~~ has been in beta for 4 years. “We have removed the beta label as our goals for stability and performance have been met but our work is far from done,” write Google’s Sundar Pichai, a VP of Product Management, and Engineering Director Linus Upson in a blog post today.

启动浏览器仅三个月后，Google已从Chrome中删除了beta标签。这可能是Google产品从其绰号中删除测试版最快的时间，例如Gmail， ~~处于测试版已近3年~~ 测试版已经4年了。 Google产品管理副总裁Sundar Pichai和工程总监Linus Upson在今天的博客中写道：“我们已经达到了稳定性和性能的目标，但我们已经删除了beta标签，但我们的工作还远远没有完成。”

Though Chrome may be stable enough to drop the beta tag, the browser is still far from complete enough to be a truly viable competitor to other alternative browsers like Firefox and Safari. Chrome still lacks support for basic features like form autofill and RSS, and perhaps more crucially, has no official support for the Linux and Mac platforms.

尽管Chrome可能足够稳定，可以放弃beta标签，但该浏览器仍远远不够完善，无法与Firefox和Safari等其他替代浏览器真正竞争。 Chrome仍然缺乏对表单自动填充和RSS等基本功能的支持，也许更重要的是，它没有对Linux和Mac平台的官方支持。

Another major feature that Chrome currently lacks is extensions. Adding support for browser plugins is a priority, though, and a Google recently published a document that details their plans for extensions for the Chromium project (Chromium is the open source project behind Chrome). We predicted earlier this month that once Chrome adds extensions support, the browser will become instantly more attractive to early adopters and will start to pull more users away from Firefox.

Chrome当前缺少的另一个主要功能是扩展。不过，增加对浏览器插件的支持是当务之急，Google最近发布了一份文档，其中详细介绍了他们对Chromium项目(Chromium是Chrome背后的开源项目)的扩展计划。我们本月初预测，一旦Chrome浏览器添加了扩展支持，该浏览器将对早期采用者立即变得更具吸引力，并将开始吸引更多用户脱离Firefox。

Chrome’s share of the browser market is still tiny, but Google has not been shy about putting a download link on Google.com, even when the product was still in beta. With that kind of exposure, and with Chrome now proclaimed stable, Chrome could start to creep up from its current ~1% share (Google claims 10 million active users — including on Antarctica, apparently). That could be especially true once some of the feature we mentioned above make an appearance.

Chrome在浏览器市场中的份额仍然很小，但即使产品仍处于测试阶段，Google也不愿意在Google.com上放置下载链接。有了这种曝光度，并且Chrome现在宣称稳定，Chrome可能会从目前的约1％的份额开始攀升(Google声称有1000万活跃用户，包括南极洲在内)。一旦我们上面提到的某些功能出现了，那就尤其如此。

We noted earlier this week that Chrome is an important part of Google’s 3-pronged Web OS strategy. Along with Gears (offline data store) and Native Client (local CPU resources for web apps), Chrome gives Google a compelling platform for the delivery of web applications. In that respect, Chrome is less an attack on Firefox and Internet Explorer, and more of a thrust at Windows. Google is pushing for a computing future in which applications are delivered from the cloud and the computer operating system doesn’t really matter. Whether the client is running Windows, Mac, Linux or something else is irrelevant for Google’s Web OS vision.

我们在本周早些时候注意到，Chrome是Google三管齐下的Web OS战略的重要组成部分。 Chrome与Gears(离线数据存储)和Native Client(用于Web应用程序的本地CPU资源)一起，为Google提供了一个引人注目的平台，用于交付Web应用程序。在这方面，Chrome不太像是对Firefox和Internet Explorer的攻击，而更多是针对Windows。 Google正在推动计算的未来，其中从云中交付应用程序，而计算机操作系统并不重要。客户端运行的是Windows，Mac，Linux还是其他操作系统与Google的Web OS构想无关。
