![Add OneTab to your Chrome and “save up to 95% memory and reduce tab clutter in Google Chrome.” No signup or registration required (from my experience, I’m telling)! How it works?
Whenever you find yourself with too many tabs, click the OneTab icon to convert all of your tabs into a list. When you need to access the tabs again, you can either restore them individually or all at once. […] When your tabs are in the OneTab list, you will save up to 95% of memory because you will have reduced the number of tabs open in Google Chrome.](http://24.media.tumblr.com/ec4e6f850c86b9a29498d82a4a5f6e57/tumblr_mjlqhrk4KY1r8dxvuo1_250.jpg)

Good find by Cnet’s Stephen Shankland:
It looks like Chrome users, not just Android users, will get access to Google Now, the search giant’s technology for bringing weather reports, trip departure reminders, birthday alerts, nearby restaurant reviews, and more to the attention of Android users.
Google Now is one of the few recent Google software projects I’m legitimately excited about. It’s very well done and seemingly getting better by the day.
Chris Ziegler on the default inclusion of Flash in Chrome:
Google: solve this. Chrome is too important to the health of the internet for this to be anything other than a severity one issue. If Flash is mucking something up in a way that you can’t solve in Chrome alone, drop Flash from your release channel until Adobe gets its act together. It’ll hurt (I’ll feel it as much as anyone, trust me), but desperate times call for desperate measures.
I love Chrome, it has been my browser of choice for several years now. But the continued insistence on including Flash by default is getting ridiculous. In my own un-scientific study, it’s the cause of 99.9% of the problems not just with my web browser, but with my computer in general.
Yes, Flash Blocker, click-to-run, etc. It’s ridiculous to include software that is so buggy and problematic by default.
Google’s stance used to be that bundling Flash in Chrome would help with security (since Flash is so often exploited and few people take the time to update it). But in our increasingly mobile world (where Flash never came to life), I think we’re moving towards a better option: no Flash, period.
Google’s popular web browser Chrome has officially overtaken Internet Explorer as the world’s most used web browser, according to data released by statcounter.

Tanjore - The web is what you make of it
Inspired by the real story of G. Rajendran, an artist from Tamil Nadu (Southern India) who used the web to bring the dying art of “Tanjore” paintings back to life and became a successful businessman in the process. The art is supposed to have originated in 1600 A.D and is an important part of the local social and cultural heritage.
