Google Chrome 33.0.1750.58 Beta Now Available for Download

Google Chrome Beta channel has been updated to version 33.0.1750.58 for Windows, Mac and Linux platforms. This new build fixes a number of crashes and other bugs.

What's new in Chrome 33 Beta?
Chrome 33 Beta comes with a number of new features for developers ranging from Custom Elements, to web speech synthesis and improved WebFont downloading. Unless otherwise noted, changes apply to desktop versions of Chrome and Chrome for Android.

Here are some key features of Chrome 33 Beta:

Custom Elements:
With Custom Elements, web developers can define new types of HTML elements to use in their web applications.

Web Speech API - Synthesis:
The Web Speech API enables web developers to add speech recognition and synthesis to their web pages. Chrome 33 Beta is the first to include speech synthesis.

NPAPI deprecation update:
Chrome has begun blocking webpage-instantiated NPAPI plug-ins by default on the Stable channel. Mac and Windows NPAPI support will be completely phased out by the end of the year, and on Linux Chromium will no longer support NPAPI plug-ins starting as early as April.

Other web platform changes in this release

• The requestAutocomplete API for easy web payments is now available on Mac.
• The Page Visibility API has been unprefixed.
• WebFont downloading has been optimized so that fonts (at the median) are available before Blink layout is done, meaning that the net latency impact of using a webfont is usually zero.
• The Blink CSS Animations and Transitions implementations are now powered by the new Web Animations model. This change should not affect developers or sites.
• Chrome now supports the latest version of the Web Notification API. Google'll be deprecating support for the legacy API down the road, so please update your websites if they're using it.
