The feature that caught my eyes is the “Snap Windows in half screen size” that Chrome 2.0 clearly mimics the same feature found on Windows 7. With the widescreen, a common thing that people do is to have 2 windows side-by-side. This snap windows feature is very handy to quickly size 2 windows perfectly show side-by-side. In Chrome, you can drag a tab to side edge of the screen to dock that tab and resize automatically the windows in half. Each half can have additional tabs for your convenience. I found there are some rough edges with this feature but after getting familiarity, it is quite useful.

Everybody can subscribe to developer channel by downloading the Chrome Channel Changer tool (an .exe file) HERE!. Run it and select the “Dev” (development) radio button. Bring back your Google Chrome, go to Wrench – About and select update to get the 2.0 version.
