Snapshot builds are current, on the fly, development builds whenever a developer has checked in changes for recompiling. You get a snapshot build whenever there is a successful compile.
Continuous builds are those snapshot builds that have passed all the automated tests. The latest tarball (created nightly) is an archive of the last known continuous green build. Chromium is the open source code project for the browser which makes use of the V8 engine for Javascript. Anyone is free to download and use the Chromium source code. Chrome is Google's branded browser based on Chromium code, which includes Google specific elements, including Google's red-yellow-green- blue Chrome logo, Google's distributor branding, and built-in access to Google Chrome's update servers.
