Chrome rules! Nice article, Some users experience problems regarding Flash, once you install it, and restart the browser. It still says " Missing Plugin" Check here to fix it.

That's a first chromium released on Ubuntu my friend.
It was before Google Chrome still in Beta and haven't make Chrome for Linux and Mac.
That's why it is called Chromium.

Nice post, but since the modjo of Ubuntu is making linux easier I think you could suggest the easiest way. Just to open synaptics, select the configuration menu and click on repositories, then go to third party software and add the reposotories (the ones in step 2), close the window and press refresh. Now chromium-browser appears in the packages of synaptics and the rest is a known story.

I’ll keep reading you and thank you for this post, now I can browse the web with chromium.
