They are now in the process of fixing the Content Licensing clause of the EULA.

Apparently, they reused the same wording they used in most of their online services, but this didn’t make much sense for a browser product.  So, they are fixing that particular clause so your dirty internet habits do not become property of Google.

Google on Chrome EULA controversy: our bad, we’ll change it

Create a document in Google Docs (like this one right here), click on the “Publish” tab on the top right corner, and on the bottom, you should see a “Post to Blog” button. You might have to enter your blog settings, but this is quick and easy. Within seconds, you should have a new entry on your blog!
So if you like to take your time and write drafts of blog posts, or just have the formatting/spellchecking/etc tools that are available in a word processor, this might be a great new way for you to post to your blog.

If you can see all of this, it worked!

This is a blockquote.  It should hopefully be nicely indented and somewhat obvious that is is indeed a blockquote.  Not very exciting, but handy when writing a real article.

But! This does not include the “short SMS codes”. So, you are unable to use things like Twitter, Textmarks, Google’s SMS service, or anything else that uses these handy short SMS codes.

Stick this little app on a USB stick and pop it into whatever computer you are using for a secure, mostly anonymous*, browsing session

TorPark: Anonymous browsing on a USB drive – Download Squad

* I say “mostly anonymous” because if someone tries hard enough, there is usually a way to trace things.  Of course, they would have to have access to potentially all computers using the Tor service and all records of the ISP’s that serve these users. So, before you get scared at “mostly anonymous”, it would take a large task force and lots of luck to trace your browsing
