Google's web browser might be creeping [even closer](http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/31/google-chrome-android-statue/) to its mobile OS, with [François Beaufort](http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/08/google-now-coming-to-chrome-browser/) noting that the latest build of open-source [Chromium](http://www.engadget.com/tag/Chromium/) for Windows has folded in some new "rich notifications". These are easily enabled by dabbling with the _chrome://flags_ component, and you'll even get a look at the decidedly Chrome-ish pop-up box, seen above. The code elaborates on how devs can work their own notifications into the service, with the Clear All button presumably signposting that several notes can be stacked. We're still dealing with the test iteration at the moment, but after those [Google Now](http://www.engadget.com/tag/googlenow/) cards made their [appearance](http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/08/google-now-coming-to-chrome-browser/), it makes sense to see more functions permeate Chrome -- especially if you own one of their [Books](http://www.engadget.com/tag/chromebook/).
