Google Chrome was recently released and it seems that a lot of people are having questions around why they can't access content on certain webpages. What I've found is most of those webpages that people are having trouble on are pages that are running Java applets. For example, my fullscreen slideshow applet in my gallery (G2) uses a java applet. For those of you having issues with webpages where you are getting a yellow box with a plugin icon in it that says "No Plugin Available to Display this Content" you might try downloading the latest version of the Java. That version of Java happens to still be in beta, but it appears to be working great for most people. Specifically,Google Chrome requires Java version 6, update 10. You can download the latest version of Java from this website: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/ea.jsp For those of you who aren't sure what to download, you probably just need the Windows Online Installer which you can download / run from this direct link: JRE Online Installer - Note: most people can uncheck the OpenOffice checkbox which will install Sun's (free) version of Microsoft Office. Update: Google officially has this in their knowledgebase. If this fix / tip worked for you or you have something to add, leave a comment below.

... So far, I'm basically please with Google Chrome. It has some work to do, and I have more to run it through. I'll be back soon with more on add-on work arounds and Google Gears, and whatever else I uncover in the mean time. |

Re: free bingo I set Google Chrome as my main browser and have been using it since the day it was released. Today, I reset my default browser back to Firefox. I've had a lot of issues with things rendering funny in Chrome, boxes being auto-populated when they weren't supposed to, multi-monitor support lacking, and other odd things happening. It looks like they have a pretty strong start at getting a new browser with some great new features out, but it just beta software and has a bunch of issues... I really hope they can significantly improve the next version, but we'll have to wait and see. |
