14 Jun 08 Chrome Hack – How to Run Java and Java Applets in Chrome!

A lot of game sites such as Yahoo Games and others may use Java and Java applets to run their games/applications.

Although the Google Chrome comes with a super-fast Javascript engine, Javascript is an entirely different platform than Java .  Therefore, you need to install a beta version of Java Runtime Engine (JRE).

FYI, this is also great new for Java developers like myself, knowing that there IS support for Java on the Chrome.

Now, you can play your Texas Hold’em in Yahoo Games all day long with Chrome.

Download beta JRE for Windows

By default the Java runtime only supports Internet Explorer and Firefox, in order to support Google Chrome (Google Chrome is based on Webkit which powers the Safari Browser) you will need to download the beta version of Java Runtime, which is compatible with Webkit and should support Java applets in Google Chrome.

06 Jun 08 Anatomy of Google Chrome Logo?

There a lot of buzz on the internet starting with someone saying that the Google Chrome looks like a Simon, Pokeball from Pokemon, and some people simply hating it.

Well to clarify where most of the Google Logo came from, we decided to do some color matching with Google’s original logo here:

As you can see, all the colors were taken from the original Google logo.

As for the shape of Chrome logo, I guess it does kinda remind me of Simon mostly but Pokeball seems a little far fetched. (maybe those kids who watch Pokeman all day)

I think it’s important to note that Firefox and IE logos both are sorta circular so that might be why Google decided to make such a logo.

Yes, in all, I am tired of people blogging about the Chrome logo, (so we will stop here) I wish people concentrated more on the features.  If you really want to contribute to Google’s logo creation, we highly suggest you to apply for a job at Google first .
