Computing Crossroads

In our last Blog, we speculated that Google Wave may do more than replace email. http://axses-ianclayton.blogspot.com/2009/06/googlecrossroads.html


"Google Wave (and the Wave Protocol), already indicates the end of the email era Wave to replace email. But it is more! Have we finally reached the point where the entire premise of the computer business, the operating systems, is at a crossroads? Well, Goggle would like to think so and Microsoft would prefer not to". Today, I read that Google is working on a new Operating System built on Google Crome.

Google says over 30 million people use Google Crome regularly. It was designed for people who live on the web. "However, the operating systems that browsers run on were designed in an era where there was no web. So today, we're announcing a new project that's a natural extension of Google Chrome — the Google Chrome Operating System. It's our attempt to re-think what operating systems should be".

Interesting, Indeed. We will be watching this. Google is changing our universe; Watch It!

Bill Gates says GoogleOS is nothing more than a browser! http://tr.im/googleOSbyMS - Could Bill be nothing more that sour grapes?
