The browser released by Google a hundred days ago, that has attracted over ten million users throughout the world, is about to come out of beta and is ready for full release.

Throughout the beta test users were encouraged to report any bugs, while the developers worked on fixing the known ones until they reached a point where the browser is as stable and usable as it is likely to ever be.

Google do say that although the beta label has been removed, the browser still remains a work in progress as they still plan to add additional features such as RSS support and autofill for forms etc.

This is fast work from Google; usually their products do not come out of the beta stage for some time, like Gmail for instance, which was launched in 2004 but still remains in beta.

To update Google Chrome go to Settings Icon and click the voice About Google Chrome. After some second an Update Button will come up, just click Update and Confirm. Restart your browser and Chrome is up to date.

The Open Screen Project is dedicated to driving consistent rich Internet experiences across televisions, personal computers, mobile devices, and consumer electronics. The Open Screen Project is supported by technology leaders, including Adobe, ARM, Chunghwa Telecom, Cisco, Intel, LG Electronics Inc., Marvell, Motorola, Nokia, NTT DoCoMo, Qualcomm, Samsung Electronics Co., Sony Ericsson, Toshiba and Verizon Wireless, and leading content providers, including BBC, MTV Networks, and NBC Universal, who want to deliver rich Web and video experiences, live and on-demand across a variety of devices.

The Open Screen Project is working to enable a consistent runtime environment – taking advantage of Adobe® Flash® Player and, in the future, Adobe AIR™ — that will remove barriers for developers and designers as they publish content and applications across desktops and consumer devices, including phones, mobile internet devices (MIDs), and set top boxes. The Open Screen Project will address potential technology fragmentation by allowing the runtime technology to be updated seamlessly over the air on mobile devices. The consistent runtime environment will provide optimal performance across a variety of operating systems and devices, and ultimately provide the best experience to consumers.

Specifically, this work will include:

• Removing restrictions on use of the SWF and FLV/F4V specifications
• Publishing the device porting layer APIs for Adobe Flash Player
• Publishing the Adobe Flash® Cast™ protocol and the AMF protocol for robust data services
• Removing licensing fees – making next major releases of Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR for devices free
