Announcing the 0.18 release here:

- More speed improvements!
- Bower now supports package specifications with omitted paths (e.g. "package-x": "^1.2.3") and a "*" as a package specification (e.g. "package-x": "*").
- Fixed the dreaded Bower bug where too frequent/large bower operations would lock the user out for 1 hour due to GitHub access rate limits.
- Fixed a bug where deleting a folder with junction points on Windows could result in data loss (CDE would delete the contents of the junction point rather than just the junction point itself).
- Pinned the version of Polymer-related Bower packages in the templates to "latest" (was "master") for improved stability of your apps.
- For Chrome 40 or later, there is a new USB device selection dialog now. It allows you to select any new USB device while deploying to mobile. No more built-in list of supported USB devices, which was getting out-of-date all the time!
- For Chrome before 40, we're still using a built-in list, but have added a couple new USB devices to it.
- Some UI adjustments and refinements.

Hey all, just to give you a heads-up.  We have announced the sessions for the Chrome Dev Summit this year https://developer.chrome.com/devsummit/sessions/

We have also made events that you can join for the livestream too over on the +Google Chrome Developers page.

Yikes.. Loading LG's G Watch site -> 54MB of transferred data. Common RWD pitfalls too: relying on client-size resizing instead of serving scaled assets, loading unnecessary assets upfront... let's hope they fix those (and other issues).

Cool :)

Until now, Chrome Extensions could not add some context menus to the page and browser actions icons but this time is over in the last chromium build.

With a simple line of code like chrome.contextMenus.create({title: "Please!", contexts: ["browser_action"]}, my browser action icon will now be able to host as many menus as I wish.
