- Remove Site Thumbnails
With Google Chrome 2.0, it is now possible to remove the site thumbnails shown when a new tab is launched in the browser. - Full-Screen Mode
The full-screen mode in Chrome 2.0 removes all traces of the browser interface, reducing navigation to keystrokes or right-mouse menus. - Auto-Fill Options
As other browsers have had for years now, Google Chrome 2.0 provides auto-fill options for filling out online forms. - Excellent Standards Support
With 2.0, Chrome (which is based on the Webkit browser engine) continues its excellent performance in Web standards tests, getting a near perfect score in the Acid3 test. - Speedy Performer
One of the biggest claims to fame that Google Chrome 2.0 has is its strong performance in browser speed tests, especially in JavaScript performance.
