Keep That Chrome Shining

Things get dingy with time and isn’t it horrible when your chrome doesn’t shine? You have to remember to keep air in the tires, the engine tuned, and the chrome shining. OK, enough of the car talk. What I am really talking about here is keeping your Chrome web browser up-to-date and your skills with it sharp.

As of December of 2011, Google Chrome is the second most used browser, falling only behind Internet Explorer in popularity. With over 25% of user across all platforms using it, it might be of benefit to spend a little time looking at ways to take better advantage of it. So, get a cup of coffee (or Diet Coke), check for all available updates, and then go to The Always Up-To-Date Power User’s Guide To Chrome.
