Test the latest beta version of Google Chrome
Google Chrome (Beta) is the experimental version of Chrome that Google uses to test out new features before it adds them to the stable release.
The biggest addition to the latest Google Chrome (Beta) is the inclusion of speech recognition for applications. The browser includes a new Web Speech API, which provides developers tools to integrate speech recognition within their web apps. There is some controversy over the security of such an API as apps will have permission to record and send audio.
Google Chrome (Beta) also adds some security enhancements, most importantly for extensions. Extensions that don't explicitly ask for permissions will be blocked automatically. This is great and will force extension developers to be more transparent.
If you want to check out what's on the horizon for Chrome, download and try the Google Chrome (Beta).

New MacBook Pro with Retina Display.
If you own the New MacBook Pro with Retina Display, then you are in for a real surprise. It would appear this version is made for the Retina Display as well as the other devices in the Mac range.While the Retina Display is the highest quality screen you've ever seen on a laptop, the issue of quality is still there, whereas Apple have made their Applications ready for it, other companies are yet to catch on.This is where this beta of Google Chrome comes in. You'll immediately notice on the Retina Display that Google have fixed the issue with quality, however, this fix will only be of use to the user when it comes out as a public release. If you don't mind the normal bugginess of a beta, then go for it and download today.
Pros:
Ready for the New MacBook Pro with Retina Display
Cons:
It's still a beta so download this with caution and be aware of stability and that it may still contain bugs. More
