Chrome 11 goes beta with speech-to-text capabilities

While Mozilla is busy with their Firefox 4 launch and development of the Firefox 5, Google Inc. has also churn out the next version of Chrome, which is Chrome 11, and this time it’s not getting just a new logo. Google is throwing quite an intensive list of new features to their Chrome browser. The new version now has speech-to-text capabilities thanks to support for HTML5 speech input API. Web developers will be able to take advantage of to let folks simply talk to websites and have their speech magically transcribed to text. Also making a first appearance in the beta is support for GPU-accelerated 3D CSS, which will let developers apply all sorts of 3D effects to websites.
