Download Google Chrome 21.0.1180.81

Google has released an update to version 21 of its Chrome web browser. Google Chrome is available in three different versions: stable, beta and dev, and this time the stable version has been updated. New in version 21 is that the browser can now access the microphone and webcam without plug-ins, of course only with the user’s permission.

Version 21.0.1180.81 should fix several issues and will also ship with a newer version of the Adove Flash plugin.
