Chrome 29 Dev for Chrome OS Comes with Improved App Launcher and Notifications
Google Chrome 29 has finally arrived in the dev channel for Chrome OS, bringing with it a few new features and plenty of improvements.
According to Google, the notable updates are a new Google Talk plugin, useful in Hangouts, and a new Flash 11.7.700.202.
Thankfully, there's actually more than that, though the changes are mostly cosmetic. For one, you can now move the app launcher button in the dock and position it wherever you want. Previously, it was fixed to the left corner of the dock.
Another small but welcomed change is to the app launcher itself. As Google is getting ready to make the switch to a new packaged app system, it wanted to differentiate them from the old apps so it added an ugly arrow emblem next to the icons in the launcher.
Thankfully, the arrow is now gone and the app launcher doesn't look like it's plucked from Windows 98 anymore.
Finally, the new notification center has gotten a few improvements, notably a pause button to, well, pause notifications.
