Angry Birds lands in Chrome Web browser

Rovio's "Angry Birds" is landing on Chrome in the first version of the addictively popular smartphone and tablet game tailored for play on a computer Web browser. "We wanted to bring 'Angry Birds' to the Web or a long time," Peter Vesterbacka of Finnish software firm Rovio said on May 11while launching the new version at a Google developers conference in San Francisco.
Once the application is installed in a Chrome browser, the game can be played in its entirety even if a computer is not connected to the Internet. "It will make those flights more bearable," said Vesterbacka, who is referred to as Rovio's "Mighty Eagle."
