There's GNUthing like GNOME!

The GNOME project provides two things: The GNOME desktop environment, an intuitive and attractive desktop for users, and the GNOME development platform, an extensive framework for building applications that integrate into the rest of the desktop.

    Thanks to Parole Media Player from XFCE, I can safely leave this club. Bye GNOME, you will not be missed.

    Actually, Chromium itself based on Chrome (for windows). Besides, does it matter? It IS Google Chrome for linux, and that is fact.
    So, now we can stop offtopic :)

    from about:linux-splash on google chrome for linux:
    "Google Chrome Dev Build

    This is an in-progress build of Google Chrome on Linux.

    We are still working on it. Parts of the browser are incomplete, poorly tuned and broken. User beware!

    ‘Chromium’ vs ‘Google Chrome’

    Chromium is an open source browser project. Google Chrome is a browser from Google, based on the Chromium project.

    This is a build of Google Chrome, released by Google for testing."

    @speteryos: Dev-channel says that Google Chrome on Linux IS Chromium.

    @ЯR I guess this is to be expected due there been not many exclusive GNU/Linux users around.
