Google Chrome update speeds up page loading and allows users to group tabs

Internet search giant Google has introduced new features to its popular Chrome browser, which it said will make page loading speeds 10 per cent faster and will allow users to group commonly-used tabs.

The Alphabet-owned company said groups of tabs can be easily expanded or collapsed, allowing users to find the information they want or finish a task quickly.

“These days, people are spending a lot of time in their browsers to get things done, whether for work, school or something else … we want Chrome to help you be more productive,” Alex Ainslie, director of UX for Chrome, said.

“When you are checking off one task after another from your to-do list, waiting even a few seconds while your tabs load can slow you down. These improvements will make your Chrome tabs load up to 10 per cent faster,” he added.

Google has introduced two new improvements – Profile Guided Optimisation, which delivers the faster page loads, and Tab Throttling that helps reduce idle background tabs slowing performance. As well as increasing loading speeds, the changes can help to improve battery performance and saves on memory use, the California-based company said.

Global market share
Global market share

Chrome accounted for 63.7 per cent of the global internet browser market as of December last year, according to Statista. It was followed by Apple’s Safari browser, which has a 17.7 per cent market share. The rest of the market is fragmented, with no other web browser commanding more than 5 per cent of the market.

With new updates, Chrome has also made it easier to distinguish tabs by topics, such as work or shopping, and users can also organise them into groups – a feature the company first announced in May.

“Now you can collapse and expand your tab groups, so it is easier to see the ones you need to access. This was the most popular feature request we heard from those of you using tab groups,” said Mr Ainslie.

Addressing another problem that has vexed Chrome users for years, Google announced a new feature that will let users hover over tabs and see a preview thumbnail of the page. This is useful when many similar tabs are open at the same time.

“It can be frustrating to click through multiple tabs trying to find the one you want. Coming to Chrome Beta to try out this release, you can hover over a tab and quickly see a thumbnail preview of the page,” said Mr Ainslie.

The latest release will also allow Chrome users to fill out and save forms directly from PDF files.

The new features will be rolled out in phases to ensure the browser’s stability, he added.

The six points:

1. Ministers should be in the field, instead of always at conferences

2. Foreign diplomacy must be left to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Co-operation

3. Emiratisation is a top priority that will have a renewed push behind it

4. The UAE's economy must continue to thrive and grow

5. Complaints from the public must be addressed, not avoided

6. Have hope for the future, what is yet to come is bigger and better than before

Going grey? A stylist's advice

If you’re going to go grey, a great style, well-cared for hair (in a sleek, classy style, like a bob), and a young spirit and attitude go a long way, says Maria Dowling, founder of the Maria Dowling Salon in Dubai.
It’s easier to go grey from a lighter colour, so you may want to do that first. And this is the time to try a shorter style, she advises. Then a stylist can introduce highlights, start lightening up the roots, and let it fade out. Once it’s entirely grey, a purple shampoo will prevent yellowing.
“Get professional help – there’s no other way to go around it,” she says. “And don’t just let it grow out because that looks really bad. Put effort into it: properly condition, straighten, get regular trims, make sure it’s glossy.”

Day 5, Abu Dhabi Test: At a glance

Moment of the day When Dilruwan Perera dismissed Yasir Shah to end Pakistan’s limp resistance, the Sri Lankans charged around the field with the fevered delirium of a side not used to winning. Trouble was, they had not. The delivery was deemed a no ball. Sri Lanka had a nervy wait, but it was merely a stay of execution for the beleaguered hosts.

Stat of the day – 5 Pakistan have lost all 10 wickets on the fifth day of a Test five times since the start of 2016. It is an alarming departure for a side who had apparently erased regular collapses from their resume. “The only thing I can say, it’s not a mitigating excuse at all, but that’s a young batting line up, obviously trying to find their way,” said Mickey Arthur, Pakistan’s coach.

The verdict Test matches in the UAE are known for speeding up on the last two days, but this was extreme. The first two innings of this Test took 11 sessions to complete. The remaining two were done in less than four. The nature of Pakistan’s capitulation at the end showed just how difficult the transition is going to be in the post Misbah-ul-Haq era.

Zakat definitions

Zakat: an Arabic word meaning ‘to cleanse’ or ‘purification’.

Nisab: the minimum amount that a Muslim must have before being obliged to pay zakat. Traditionally, the nisab threshold was 87.48 grams of gold, or 612.36 grams of silver. The monetary value of the nisab therefore varies by current prices and currencies.

Zakat Al Mal: the ‘cleansing’ of wealth, as one of the five pillars of Islam; a spiritual duty for all Muslims meeting the ‘nisab’ wealth criteria in a lunar year, to pay 2.5 per cent of their wealth in alms to the deserving and needy.

Zakat Al Fitr: a donation to charity given during Ramadan, before Eid Al Fitr, in the form of food. Every adult Muslim who possesses food in excess of the needs of themselves and their family must pay two qadahs (an old measure just over 2 kilograms) of flour, wheat, barley or rice from each person in a household, as a minimum.
