Download: Chromium 27 for Windows

Chromium is the parent project of the Google Chrome browser, and is open source.

 

The Chromium open-source project can ask the Google Chrome browser "who's your daddy?". With a release cycle of six weeks, every Google Chrome version is simply the latest stable build of Chromium. The difference is that Chromium does not have Flash Player built-in, uses different artwork, and won't auto-update if you prefer it that way. All functionality is identical, including the rendering engine (WebKit), theme/extension compatibility and of course the user interface.

You'd want the latest snapshot of Chromium if you want to try a browser that might conceivably use less RAM and perform faster than the latest Google Chrome. It is also a good option if your priorities include a more-portable browser. It is on even keel with Mozilla's Firefox with regard to OS compatibility, as builds are available for Windows (only 32-bit binaries compiled), Linux (32/64-bit x86 and ARM) and Mac OSX.

The latest version for Windows weighs in at 42.5 MB, and can be downloaded as a ZIP file from the usual download sites, or as a pre-built portable app. To list a few, its features of include:

  • Built-In Download Manager: For quick-access to user files
  • Pop-Up Blocker: blocks Pop-Ups
  • Flash, HTML 5 support: For viewing videos and newer websites (passes ACID3 test)
  • Light Weight: This app is used for faster surfing of the internet
