Marketing reasons, tech blogs don't write about minor version increments.
- glassx 15y agoThat's the best explanation I've heard so far, makes a lot of sense!
- wvenable 15y agoSadly, there isn't much to write about because there isn't anything new here. As far as I can tell, tech blogs don't write about Chrome versions anymore -- I don't even know what number they are up to.
- mark_story 15y ago12 is the current release, and 13 should be ready soon. One thing chrome has done really well is smooth and seamless upgrades, this helps them move things forward and people don't notice the version numbers crawl up.
- Osiris 15y agoThe dev channel is already up to 14.
- azakai 15y agoTech blogs most certainly do mention Chrome versions. For example, Ars Technica and TechCrunch did so for the last Chrome release. The theory that people will start ignoring versions has not yet been proven. It still might though.
