Just two weeks after the full release of Chrome 10, the Google Chrome development team has now released the first beta of version 11 of the company's WebKit-based Web browser. Aimed at developers and early adopters, the first Chrome 11 beta includes several changes and capabilities like support for GPU-accelerated 3D CSS and the HTML5 Speech Input API. "With this API, developers can give Web apps the ability to transcribe your voice to text. When a Web page uses this feature, you simply click on an icon and then speak into your computer’s microphone. The recorded audio is sent to speech servers for transcription, after which the text is typed out for you," Satish Sampath, software engineer at Google, explains in the Chrome Blog.
