Google Chrome now has a handy drawing app for your silly sketches
Google Chrome has sneakily introduced an app for quick sketches.
Spotted by Chrome Unboxed, if you open up canvas.apps.chrome you’ll be taken to Canvas, which lets you draw stuff within the browser.
It’s a very simple app, with four different pen/brush options, an eraser, a colour picker, and an ability to export your drawing as a PNG file to your computer. You can also import an existing image from your computer, and draw over it.
What’s more, drawings will automatically store on your Google Account, so if you ever need to remind yourself of that stupid hot dog sketch you put together, it’s a few clicks away.
While the app seems to be directed at Chromebooks, you can use it across different browsers like Firefox and Safari, plus on mobile too.
There’s not really much more to say about Chrome Canvas, but it’s a handy way to draw something in a jiffy, and a demonstration of the possibilities with new web standard WebAssembly.
