$ diff /etc/yum.repos.d/google*
1,2c1,2
< [google-chrome]
< name=google-chrome

IOW the repos are the same except for the name. Nevertheless:

$ rpm -q google-chrome-beta chromium
google-chrome-beta-4.0.249.30-33928.i386
chromium-4.0.252.0-0.1.20091119svn32498.fc12.i686

So the installed apps are actually different. The differences are
