After a while, finally Google has officially promoted Google Chrome 9 to Stable Channel, meaning that it will superseeds Google Chrome 8. Right now, they have Chrome 10 and 11 on development channel, which is focused for integrating new features that will be applied in the next stable channel.
New features included in Google Chrome 9 are: WebGL, Chrome Instant, and the Chrome Web Store.
