This is definitely an improvement, reminds me a lot of a circular version of Kaleidoscope, http://www.kaleidoscopeapp.com/ at least the dimensionality and shading. obviously not as bright though. Nice work.
Very polished, but i can't quite work out what sort of surface the shadows and highlights are trying to suggest. Appears to be quite a hard edged object to 'touch'... which seems odd to me considering old-chrome was veery curved and spherical and the new one is flat and round. Pet peeve!

Thanks a lot for this. It fits exactly with what I had in my mind as a mixture between the old and the new icon.

Very slick! I think the interior shading you did really adds something nice that the current Chrome icon lacks.

Say, that's a very interesting shading technique... would you be interested in making a tiny tutorial on how to achieve such a gradient?

There is a PSD here on how to achieve such effect.

I get the idea but it doesn't sit right with me. Probably because I hated the original chrome logo
Still, it came together nicely.
