Just recently they updated many of their Docs programs, and now they have pushed out a new stable release of their popular web browser, Google Chrome. This release of Chrome completely redesigns the screen that launches when you click on the new tab button. This new change makes it easier to manage your most visited websites and all your installed apps. It is much cleaner looking than the older version and is much more functional. 
The next big change is to the Chrome App Store. Google pretty much rebuilt the web store from the ground up. Now it is much easier to get more information about an application right from the main page. Simply mouse over the application in the store to see the rating and a brief description of the app. You can also install the app right from this little hover-over window. This way, if you know what application you want you can get access to it much more quickly.

When you see an app you like and click it, it now opens in a little window pop up. This makes it quicker to get back to your search results.

In addition to updating Chrome itself, they have also launched a lot of new apps, so if something you were looking for was not in the store, you may want to check again, because it may have been added with this update.

iPhone 4 named most popular camera on Flickr

The iPhone 4 is the most popular camera on Flickr, according to new figures released by the photo-sharing website. An update to its running tally of the most popular cameras used by the Flickr community of photographers reveals that the Apple iPhone 4 has overtaken the Nikon D90 as the most prevalent camera. This leap comes just a year after the iPhone 4 was released. The Apple iPhone 4 camera is followed by the Nikon D90, Canon EOS 5D Mark II, Canon EOS 450D (aka EOS Digital Rebel XSi) and the Canon EOS 500D (aka EOS Rebel T1i). Flickr says its graphs show the number of members who have uploaded at least one photo or video with a particular camera on a given day over the last year. However, the Flickr team adds that, "The graphs are only accurate to the extent that we can automatically detect the camera used to take the photo or shoot the video (about 2/3rds of the time)." The website admits that this is not always possible with camera phones, suggesting they are under-represented and that the iPhone camera's popularity could extend even further.
