Google Chrome for Mac and Linux Out of Beta
That's right, folks. Google just announced that Chrome for Mac and Linux is out of beta. They feel they've squashed enough bugs to get it up to snuff with the Windows version and have released it as of today. Google is also touting its speed increases with the latest version for all three platforms. Since the first beta, they've increased [...]
Google Voice for iPhone is Here
