*Google Chrome* makes its debut on Windows 8, showing Google's commitment to
providing a rich Metro-style browser for the new operating system. This very
early developer version of Google Chrome gives us a glimpse into the future
of a *touch-friendly Chrome*. To install this version, users will have to go
to the developer channel and download Google Chrome from there. Make sure to
check the box for "Make Google Chrome my default browser" to enable its Metro
interface. This developer version of Google Chrome for Metro will immediately
be familiar. It looks *almost identical to the desktop version* of Google
Chrome but simplifies things with a bigger menu button on the top right. From
there, you can access all of the preferences and settings that you would get
from the desktop version of Chrome. This is where Google Chrome for Metro
begins to show its sloppiness. The settings buttons are bigger, but aren't as
touch-friendly as Internet Explorer for Metro. One of the best features of
Google Chrome for Metro is *full Adobe Flash support*. As with all other
variations of Google Chrome, Flash is baked right into the browser so no
additional downloads are needed. Internet Explorer for Metro, on the other
hand, features a watered-down version of Flash that only works on certain
sites. *Google's developers have a long way to go to make Google Chrome for
Metro feel like a native application. As it stands, this is a very early port
of Chrome that hasn't put much thought into design.*Download *Google Chrome
