Google Chrome is now out of beta

December 16, 2008 · Comments 

Google as you know used to release beta’s all the time for its new browser Chrome, the last “beta” update version was 0.4.154.29 but now Google has announced that in their 15th release (which is already released) that they will be taking off the beta label. So what we have here is a fully functional stable product. Currently there is no change-log available. And I did not see any difference using it either (maybe because I didn’t use it much yet :P)… Anyhow according to Google they have fixed some common bugs found in Chrome, improved the bookmark manger and privacy controls, also they say its 1.4 to 1.5 times faster than the beta.

You can now download it here

The Survey for People Who Make Websites

July 30, 2008 · Comments 

Last year, A List Apart released a web design survey, focusing on finding out common job titles, salaries, and work situations in the web industry. Yesterday, they launched another survey, targeting people who make websites explicitly. They include in this category “all designers, developers, information architects, project managers, writers, editors, [and] marketers,” and I suppose anyone else who is in on creating websites, be it the backend, frontend, or content portion of it.

This year’s survey aims to correct mistakes in the one made last year:

This year’s survey corrects many of last year’s mistakes, with more detailed and numerous questions for freelance contractors and owners of (or partners in) small web businesses. There are also better international categories, and many other improvements recommended by those who took the survey last year.

Have you taken it already?
