Since obviously not all of us are multi-linguists, there are times when we stumble across foreign websites during our search which could have the answers we are seeking for. Fortunately for desktop users of Google’s Chrome browser, hitting the translate […]

Chrome for Android update adds fullscreen mode for tablets, Google Translate integration
Posted in: Today's Chili
Chrome for Android just turned 28! Version 28, which today moved out of beta to the stable channel, includes a pair of notable additions, along with the typical variety of bug fixes and performance improvements. The first new feature is Google Translate integration. When you come across a website in a foreign language, the browser will offer to translate the text into your language. Additionally, tablet users are now able to take advantage of the fullscreen mode already available on smartphones. After updating to 28, you should be able to scroll down the page and see the toolbar disappear. Finally, there’s a new interface option for right-to-left languages, which include Arabic, Farsi and Hebrew. Snag the update at the source link below.

The green is Chrome. The blue is Internet Explorer. The orange-ish color is Firefox. If you can see any red or grey that would be Opera and Safari, respectively. And though I personally believe all browsers have become horrible in their own ways, having Chrome at the top of most country’s usage list according to Statcounter is certainly a lot better than the alternatives ruling the world. Good job world. Enjoy the suffering southern tip of Africa and all of China and Greenland.

Pixels rejoice: native Microsoft Word and Excel file editing arrive on Chrome OS
Posted in: Today's ChiliThose paying close attention to Google’s pre-final releases of the operating system iteration of Google’s Chrome will have noticed the addition of some rather important abilities to Chromium code. Noting the discovery of this addition well before Google made such a thing public was developer François Beaufort. As a Google open-source evangelist himself, Beaufort was

Twitter isn’t quite done refining TweetDeck’s interface following recent web and desktop overhauls — there’s still a little tweaking left in store. The company has just updated the Chrome and web versions of its social app with grab handles that let users drag and drop columns at will. It’s also easier to jump back to the top of a column when there are unread tweets, and a selected column now snaps to the sidebar when there are fewer than three total columns on the screen. While the fresh interface is web-only for now, those who prefer the native Mac and Windows apps should get matching upgrades in the near future.

Evernote Web Clipper’s new Gmail function saves copies of emails and attachments
Posted in: Today's Chili
Keeping your Gmail account organized isn’t that hard when you can tag and star emails. Evernote Web Clipper’s new function, however, promises easier access to missives you deem particularly important. Once the Chrome extension is installed, it saves any message you want along with its attachments in just one click. One note, though: you’ll need a premium account to search through any attached documents. Note that the Gmail clip will look like a garbled mess (especially if it’s a lengthy thread) on Web Clipper’s preview screen, but on the Evernote app or web portal it will appear nicely formatted. If you think this new function can help you wrangle an increasingly unruly Gmail account, hit the source link below for more info or look for the extension on the Chrome Web Store.

2009 was such an innocent time. Barack Obama was in the White House, we were all enjoying the latest Star Trek movie and the world’s browser usage left a bit to be desired. So much has changed in those intervening years — enough to cause Google’s engineering team to put Chrome Frame out to pasture. Introduced way back in those heady days of the late aughts, the plug-in was intended to help devs bring the latest web-based technologies to users still rocking ancient versions of Internet Explorer. Thanks to a decline in the usage of old browsers, as well as browser auto-updating, Google’s retiring Frame in January of next year, ending support and updates for the service. Those still clinging to old browsers will see a prompt to upgrade to something newer in the place of the old Frame redirect.

Google has announced the latest in its Chrome Experiments, an in-browser game called Cube Slam that lets you slam a small cube into your friend’s face (or a bear’s face, if you’re so inclined). While this isn’t the first game of this nature we’ve seen, this is arguably one of the most enjoyable, bringing a
