    Google has released its web browser's latest version called Chrome 21, with plentiful of new features that most of us have been waiting for since the beta build releases. First on the list is the high-resolution support for the MacBook Pro with Retina display owners. This is the only browser now apart from Safari to get it. Apart from that, Chrome now has support for the HTML 5 <a href="https://blog.chromium.org/2012/07/introducing-getusermedia-and-javascript.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Chromium Blog: Introducing getUserMedia and the Javascript Gamepad API</a> from the WebRTC standard that lets users have access to web apps with high quality audio-video through web-camera and microphone without the necessity of installing a separate plug-in. If you got a chance to check out the #-Link-Snipped-#, you will know why this feature is awesome.

    #-Link-Snipped-#Google Chrome 21 also brings for us a deeper integration with #-Link-Snipped-# and expanded support for Gamepad Javascript API to help developers access input from any standard gamepad connected to the user’s machine. You can #-Link-Snipped-#, but if you already have the browser installed it will auto-update in the background.

    Here's a video from Google I/O that explains WebRTC and what it means to the users -
