Now, there is a twist in the story : Google Chrome is an OS !
I am passionate about Google Chrome, and that’s why I started this blog. I was very much passionate about Google Android, because I thought it will become an operating system for netbooks and laptops very soon. I used to imagine how it will be, when Google releases an operating system.
Now, the story of Google Chrome has a twist. It’s going to become an operating system. It’s not Android that will see being developed as an OS for netbooks and laptops, but that’s ok, we will still get an operating system from Google.
What is Google Chrome OS
I know that you have already read enough about google chrome operating system from various sources. Still, this post won’t be complete without mentioning what it is.
Google Chrome OS is an open source, lightweight operating system that will initially be targeted at netbooks. Later this year we will open-source its code, and netbooks running Google Chrome OS will be available for consumers in the second half of 2010. Because we’re already talking to partners about the project, and we’ll soon be working with the open source community, we wanted to share our vision now so everyone understands what we are trying to achieve.
That’s from the Official Google Blog.
Vow, it’s linux based, and I am linux fan too, okay, so I love linux, I love chrome, and I love the fact that google is building an operating system .. all this love with be expressed through chromestory.com in coming days. You will see news, and updates about the new OS, yes, chromestory.com is not just about the browser anymore …. it will be about the new operating system, news tips, and whole lot of information. And the forum ? It will be developed as Google OS Help Forum.
The Door of secrets is open … it’s time to explore more !!

Good. Finally some good competition to Windoze hopefully. Let’s see how it pans out.
If Chrome (the OS) has the same minimalist flavor, low resource demand and speed as Chrome (the Browser), then both Microsoft and Apple will need to rethink their business models. Although I am experimenting with Ubuntu on my 5 year old laptop now (and liking it), admittedly I’m starting to drool at the prospect of a Chrome OS.
that’s right … people live on browsers most the time … and google is trying to give a browser like experience for this OS itself … I expect a big change in computing with this ..
yes, competition getting tougher, apple need not worry about the stuff right now .. chrome os is going to happen on netbooks first, which they don’t have in their product line yet ..
