The virtual keyboard will automatically pop up at the bottom right of every page that contains input text boxes and text areas.

To enable or disable keyboard on all tabs in Google Chrome, either click on the page action icon in the Omnibox or press Ctrl+Space. You can switch between keyboard layouts using the arrow icon located on the upper right of the virtual keyboard or press Ctrl+Q.
