Google heeft versie 37 van zijn webbrowser Chrome uitgebracht. Google Chrome is beschikbaar voor Windows, Linux en OS X. Er zijn ook versies voor Android en iOS, maar die volgen een iets ander release-schema. In versie 37 treffen we onder meer een verbeterde manier aan om fonts te renderen in Windows.
