Chrome 2.0 dev Preview

This is a nice Chrome 2 Preview by ars technica covering some of the cool promising new features in Chrome 2.0 dev edition. Some of the features in short are:

• Support for some of Apple’s non-standard CSS features like gradient, reflections, and masks. Frankly this non-standard CSS stuff is all new to me! But looks cool.
• Edge Docking, to give more Windows feeling.
• some light custom javascripting on pages
• Autocompletion
• Import from Google Bookmarks (Yeay!) But no sync so I still won’t use it.
