After going mobile with launch of Chrome for Android, the sleek "Google Chrome" web-browser has made it's way to Apple iOS ecosystem with release of Chrome for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad.

After installing Chrome on your Apple device, you will instantly notice the signature speedier webpage loading - thanks to the smart pre-fetching technique Google Chrome is known for. The other major features you would love enjoying would be - the tabbed browsing, private surfing using incognito mode, synchronized web-browsing tied to your Google account across desktop and mobile browsers to enjoy always in-sync open tabs, bookmarks, passwords and omnibox data with ability to send pages from Chrome on your computer to your phone for offline on-the-go reading.

A detailed hands-on review with high-resolution images posted after the jump.

Google Chrome is steadily making it's way to become the leading desktop web-browser, and even has plans to be "the desktop" and not a web-browser on desktop one day. Few months ago Google unveiled the "Google Chrome Beta Webbrowser For Android" platfrom, with features like accelerated page loading/scrolling/zooming, searching and navigation using familiar omnibox, unlimited tabbed browsing with easy-to-view stack, synchronization from desktop browser and Incognito mode the browser is a must try.

Google Chrome OS and the initial Google Chromebook device were not able to create any significant stir, the next generation of Google Chrome OS and devices are out now to in hopes to change that.

With release of all new Google Chrome OS powered ChromeBox portable desktop computing unit, it has once again proved how desktop computing future will be all about ultra-portable devices. Google is once again trying to get back into the desktop race with the new version of there "Google Chrome OS", to get the the job done the new features are better offline application capabilities and a more desktop like interface.

Apart from the new ChromeOS upgrade, the new "talk of the town" would be the portable ChromeOS powered desktop computing unit "ChromeBox".

The new Chromebook boots in less than seven seconds and resumes instantly, to get this done Google is now using more hardware fire-power by adding Intel Core processors offering nearly three times faster speeds with hardware-accelerated graphics, multi-touch trackpad and an open-source firmware stack.

Although serving an essential task of securing automated non-human (BOT) access to web-services CAPTCHA image verification is an necessary evil, the annoying CAPTCHA codes not only wastes your time but can also become a pain at times when they get hard to recognize - resulting in repeated failed attempts.

To get you relieved from this annoyance, a new web-browser addon "Rumola" offers automated CAPTCHA code decoding and filling to it's users. The addon is currently available for free on Firefox, Google Chrome and Apple Safari webbrowser - Once installed and activated "RUMOLA" gets into action automatically whenever a CAPTCHA test is detected and fills the code for you.

Similar to user's who prefer old Firefox styling there are many who love Google Chrome's minimalistic approach, if you are also looking for the same - FXChrome for "Firefox 4" is the theme you need to get.

The Google Chrome team has released Chrome v 11.0.696.57 to the "Stable Channel" for all platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux). Apart from the usual bug, security and performance fixes the brand new Chrome 11 build features speech input through HTML using which users can translate using text-to-speech into other languages with Google Translate.

Official feature description :

"If you’re translating from English, just click on the microphone on the bottom right of the input box, speak your text, and choose the language you want to translate to. In fact, you can even click on the “Listen” feature to hear the translated words spoken back to you!"

While Gmail Labs already featured an "unread message count in title-bar" hack, the same was not very useful while using tab-pinning in Firefox or Chrome web-browsers. Thanks to a new Gmail Labs feature we can now have the unread mail count as an favicon clearly visible when using tab-pinning feature in Firefox and Google Chrome.

The world's fastest web-browser war is nothing new, Opera has now came up with an funny video poking fun at Google Chrome's Speed Test video proving that Opera is indeed faster than the potato. The video is available for your pleasure after the jump.

While every other web-browser is claiming to be the world's fastest, Google has their own interesting way of demoing Chrome as the real crown holder by comparing it's webpage speed rendering times with a potato gun and lighting.

Google Chrome is doing great slowly gaining web-browser market share, now you can enjoy the same web-browsing experience using a more security hardened version of Chromium code-base developed by well-known security software vendor 'Comodo', the all new Comodo Dragon Internet Browser features greater stability, less memory bloat, improved privacy, easy SSL certificate identification, faster website access, more private Incognito mode which also stops cookies, and easy migration from your existing browser.

Since Comodo Dragon is based on same Chromium code-base which powers Google Chrome plus some more performance and security tweaks the browser looks pretty fast in initial usage, the new look and feel also makes it a good alternative to Google Chrome.
