Google has barely released Chrome 1.0, but the company is already hard at work on version 2.0 of its web browser. They released a pre-beta for Chrome 2.0, which comes with a lot of new features, including ones that should've already been in Chrome 1.0. In addition, it seems as if the Mac and Linux versions of Chrome are getting closer.

Two considerations make this justifiable as 2.0 in my mind. First, what you see here is a dev build leading up to what will eventually be the 2.0 release. Second, feature-wise, I think an add-on capacity is fair justification for a version number bump. Add-ons allow ad-blocking and a world of other good things.

More like 1.1, but welcomed improvements nonetheless, Google Chrome has become my default Windows browser since its first beta. I love its simplicity, but I do miss a few features and I'm glad the new release will be bringing them soon.
