The new versions are live for Windows, Linux and Chrome OS. Google says it is ?still working on Mac support? (Chrome for Mac has been updated to v26, but it does not yet contain the new spell checker).
To use the new spell checking feature, turn on the new ?Ask Google for suggestions? option which you?ll see when you right click any highlighted misspelling. The new spell check also does some grammar checking and recognizes proper nouns (especially people?s names, handy for composing email) and homonyms.
Chrome 26 also sports a new personal dictionary. If the spell-checker keeps underlining a word you want it to ignore, just right-click the word and select ?Add to dictionary.? If you?re signed in and syncing your data through your Google account your dictionary additions will go with you.
