Google has recently introduced the launch of Chrome OS as an extension to Internet browser. Being a unique idea they claimed to provide a full operating system in browser running on your machine. As all of Google products are online they have trained their users to think every service to be available on Internet. Believe me this is really a matter of spreading a trend in people. And the browser is the most frequently used software on an operating system. What I think they will putt all their products in that operating system.

According to Google blog

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.

Google Chrome OS vs Microsoft Gazelle

Developing an operating system was the most awaited thing in Intern user base. As all the products Google launched they were full of innovation and based on crazy ideas. I also came to know about the launch of new Internet browser by Microsoft too named ‘Gazelle’. The interesting thing is it also based on the same idea to provide an operating system in a browser. Google just hit before Microsoft make an announcement. Why both of these companies were involved to developing products based on similar idea? Is it idea theft sort of thing? Who did it first? Well all such kind of questions will be answered on the comparison of feature in these two products.

The developers of these companies are imposing their ideas on people to live like they think. Don’t they?
