No one cares about version numbers for web apps because you're always running the latest version. Since Chrome updates automatically, I think people will eventually treat it similarly. Instead of announcing a new version of Chrome, Google will just announce new features in Chrome that everyone using the browser will have. I don't think they'll ever refer to "Chrome 20" in public.
- aboodman 16y agoWe already do this. Note that the public blog post does not contain the character "9" anywhere in it. It's only bloggers that insist on referring to the versions :)
- InclinedPlane 16y agoExactly, I'm getting tired of this line of argument. The major version number of chrome is virtually hidden from users. Unlike other browsers there is never branding or logos featuring the major version number and there are never big press releases trumpeting a change of version. Perhaps some day bloggers and commenters will finally notice this and give these lame arguments a rest.
