The Google OS is here

Posted by Pavan Chander | Filed under Software

No really, it is!

Well kind of, It’s probably just not what you had in mind.

First of all, what could one consider a “Google OS” to be?
One could reply that its an OS designed to integrate Google’s web based application line, with traditional desktop applications with focus on search, ease of use, and stability.
Fine maybe thats just my take on it, but its not a bad take..

So then what kind of applications does an OS need?
Well there’s a need for productivity software (Mail, Calendar, Document control). Communication (IM, Social Networking, Online discussion).
Media (Images, Video).

Anyone can see where I’m going with this, so if Google already has so many desktop applications being ported to the web then why does it need to create a whole OS to interact with them?

They don’t.

Introducing: Google Chrome, must-read overview here.

Why do I call it the Google OS, well think about it; The real “Google OS” is actually all in cyberspace. So all one needs to do is use a browser to access it.

But By creating a browser that will run on Windows/Mac/Linux, Google has created a universally stable “OS” that will be able to handle all Google Apps effectively.
