You can now install PC Gamer—okay fine, any website I suppose—as an app on your desktop with the latest Chrome Canary build

The PC Gamer web app, created with the latest build of Google Canary.

Not content to merely sit on our laurels as the world's best PC gaming website in your regular browser, now we want to infiltrate your desktop apps as well. Kidding— mostly kidding—but those of you with the latest Chrome Canary build could well make that dream a reality. With a bit of light tweaking you can add an "Install page as an app" option to the browser letting you drop app shortcuts onto your PC desktop (via Android Police).

If we're being totally transparent, you can do it for any website, not just this glorious collection of PC gaming and PC gaming hardware delights. Chrome Canary is the daily build version of Google Chrome, and it's generally a few steps ahead of the stable release build of the browser, often featuring the absolute latest changes under testing from the developers.
