Chrome for Android has become the best browser app on Android for me. The only shortcoming is that it doesn’t support Adobe Flash, something I use often, so it’s not an exclusive option for me. But if you’re someone who doesn’t care about Flash and have been patiently waiting for Chrome to work outside of the United States, I’ve got good news and better news you might want to hear. Google announced today that Chrome for Android is now available anywhere with access to Google Play, provided that you have an Android 4.0 phone or tablet. In addition to crossing more borders, the browser now includes 31 languages in case you wish to localize it into your native or local tongue. It’s the latest in a short string of incremental updates that have made Google’s products available in more non-U.S

Ever since the iPhone 4S’ launch, all of Apple’s fanatics have driven us Android geeks crazy with their oh-so-cool, original and innovative Siri voice assistant. And even though I for one can’t understand what this fuss is all about, there was talk for a while now about a similar piece of software made for Android devices.

The good news is that a somewhat similar feature has been released earlier today as part of an update for the Dolphin browser. The bad news, however, is that the Dolphin Sonar (I know, a much cooler name than ‘’Siri’’) won’t be able (for the time being at least) to do all the things that Apple users are currently able to do with the help of their ‘’intelligent personal assistant’’. Dolphin Sonar should be pretty easy to use, as you only need to shake your phone or tap on the microphone in the lower right corner during your Dolphin browsing
