For the past decade or more we have all become rather accustomed to the idea of operating systems that install directly to our hard drives, and of course it’s what we are all comfortable with. Google has chosen to challenge that with it’s new Chrome Operating system which is based upon it’s Chrome Browser. That is to say it IS the chrome browser. Is that a bad thing? Well that’s ultimately up for the end user to decide but we will do our best to fill you in.

First of all, the applications that are offered with the Chrome OS are completely web based. That’s right, there will be no installations to the hard drive, you will only be able to use the applications that are offered online. This can really be a pain, especially if there is something you need that just has not been created yet.

Of course at that point you will probably have a whole shelf of PC applications that you could be using, but of course the Chrome Netbook simply doesn’t have an optical drive or even a hard drive. So what’s the idea here? What even makes Google Chrome so desirable?

Well there is the fact that it will have that ‘instant on’ feature. People want their computers to ‘just work’, which means the Chrome netbooks will be great for those who need to check their e-mail on the go. It also begs the question though of whether or not the web browser will be a local application. What happens if the Google servers suddenly decide to go under the weather? You have all this data that you’ve saved online but you can’t access it! You have the latest in mobile computing, but it’s as good as a brick without the ability to do word processing or e-mail. You can’t even install a game to pass the time.

Having an operating system that is completely dependent on the internet is a bad idea at this point. This is for the reasons that were mentioned above, as well as a few others. Some of those other reasons include the fact that it is dependent on the internet! Really, what happens when someone suddenly cannot afford the internet, or maybe their internet goes out. They have a very expensive, and very attractive looking paperweight. This is not the computing of the future, this is lunacy.

Yes, there will come a point when computers can be web based. That will be the day when internet is given free to everyone and outages aren’t quite as common. That day is not here yet, and Google will find that it will be very difficult to force that day upon us.

For those who can afford the machine and can keep a constant internet connection wherever they go, the Google Chrome OS will be a great secondary device. But for right now that’s all it will be. A secondary device.

If you have ever shared a log on or computer for your web browsing you’ll know how annoying it can be not to have secure web surfing. Organize a surprise party or weekend away and then a list of hotels appears in your partners browser next time she logs on. It’s almost like you share a common surfing history in the house.

Let’s face it perhaps you don’t want your kids to visit all the same web sites as you!

There’s nothing ground breaking in Chromes Incognito mode but it is a very useful feature. Switch to Incognito mode and your web surfing instantly becomes a little more secure.

This is how you can use Chrome for secure web browsing, simply right click on the Chrome Shortcut on your desktop, select properties and you should see the shortcut menu appear.

1) Right Click on Chrome Shortcut on Desktop
2) Select Properties
3) On Shortcut menu add the following to target shortcut menu -incognito

Therefore every time you start Chrome using that shortcut now you will be in ‘incognito mode’. If you just want to use this mode occasionally then you can select a ‘incognito’ windows from the file menu.

All the web sites you visit are now not recorded in your history, all cookies are deleted when you close. There’s no trace of the web sites stored on your computer at all. Most of the browsers offer similar functionality now but most have to be done manually (so people forget). Overall I guess Firefox with it’s multitude of plug-ins and open source model will hopefully produce the ultimate secure browsing. I’ll have a look at these options in a later article.

Of course, it’s a long, long way from real secure web surfing, we still use HTTP which means your browsing is in clear text. Your browsing history and IP address are also stored on the web site you visit, on the ISP logs. But it is a start and at least can keep your PC holding a huge list of your web browsing.

If you want the ultimate secure browsing, have a look here – Secure Surfing Protection

Take care and stay safe.

By now you’ve probably heard: Google is on the warpath with the announcement of Chrome OS. Just a mere 12 hours after the information was posted on The Official Google Blog, everyone is buzzing about the new operating system, what it means for Microsoft and how the public will react.

Well, it seems they already are. Within 10 minutes of sitting down at my desk, when I was able to finally access my mail, sign on to Instant Messenger and open Chrome, I was bombarded with articles, tweets and IMs about Chrome OS. Maybe this is the reason why. According to the Google Blog, the Google team is “designing the OS to be fast and lightweight, to start up and get you onto the web in a few seconds.” The difference is that the Chrome OS will run on the web, versus cluttering up your computer’s performance. This concept of cloud computing isn’t brand new- both Good OS and Microsoft have tooled around with a cloud-based OS. Good OS’s Cloud was released last year and hasn’t caught the attention of the general public, but Cloud 1.0 has been “optimized for netbooks” and is coming soon. (Unfortunately, any chance of widespread popularity was just usurped.) Microsoft’s Azure is a services platform, which may be a terrific tool for developers, but for those of us who ‘don’t do code,’ Azure has very little value (at the moment anyway.) What’s interesting is this quote from Microsoft Chief Software Architect Ray Ozzie, regarding the future of applications and computer use:

“All of us are going to be standing on their shoulders” as the technology industry transitions from offering and using traditional software run in enterprise IT networks to running more applications on the Internet via cloud-computing environments hosted by large vendors…” — Elizabeth Montalbano, IDG News Service

However I think they anticipated Microsoft being the “large vendor.” The cloud, aka The Internet, the virtual highway- is it still virtual? With the concept of widespread cloud computing, and an entirely web-based operating system, the interactive space seems to become palpable. With all of our information, our manageable life existing entirely online, it seems we’re moving into virtual real estate. (I may be exploring the outer limbs here, but it’s a big tree.) One of my biggest concerns, and one I think the general Internet community will also harbor, is that of safety. Google claims that the Chrome OS “should just work.” No viruses, no malware… No identity theft? And although voicing different concerns, the recent announcements for all-in-one telephone application Google Voice also stirred questions of security. 1– I know a ton of my information is already on the web, but everything? My comfort level is questionable, even though I know myself and my love for Google’s simplicity. 2– What is Google doing with all this data? Google Voice will have the ability to record your phone calls for data purposes– don’t you think they’ll cache your spreadsheets, presentations, photos and SSN? Now, Google gets data when we use their web based apps and desktop products. With the Google Chrome OS, every action you take is on their system. What do you think about the issue of security, data sharing and the new Google OS? Drop me a line!

This week has marked a proud moment in domain history for domain developers – that’s right, the announcement of Google Chrome. For those unfamiliar with my domain flipping methodology I will explain this first so that this post makes sense. (If you are a regular reader feel free to skip to the next paragraph)

When I flip a domain I do not buy a domain and then sell it quickly. Instead, a flip for me is the process of buying a domain in a category I feel has good growth potential. Next I spend some time researching the market, understanding the top keywords using tools like Wordtracker, and finally – creating a game plan for what I think would be most effective on the given domain. Then I develop a high-quality website with interactive features that keep users coming back. By writing high-quality, keyword-rich content I create websites that rank well in search engines like…Google.

So how does Google Chrome help domain flippers/developers? Easy – all of those domainers that have been getting hits through typo’s will now lose their traffic as the typo’s now become search terms plugged-into the Google search engine. Google then determines it was a typo and suggests what the user was actually looking for. What does this mean? More hits for legitimately developed websites.

This means that flipped/developed domains will now get significantly more traffic as ranking well in a search engine will become far more valuable than having a typo similar to a popular keyword. At the end of the day this is also a better service to the end-user who can actually find what they are looking for rather than the typical parking page found on typo domains.

So domain flippers, developers, investors of the world rejoice! Let’s face it – Google is the undisputed king of the Internet and when the king makes a browser the masses will use it. This will represent a change that over time will help make domain development the new wave of domain name investing.

Over the past few years Firefox has been rising in market share in the Internet browser market due to its speed and support for extensions, but that tide may well be about to change. Google this week announced that user-installed Chrome extensions will now be fully supported – meaning that Google Chrome presents the strongest competition ever to Firefox.

Although there haven’t been many released yet, here are the top 10 Google Chrome extensions:

1. AdBlock – If you are tired of seeing ads while you are browsing the web, then this chrome extension is perfect. Block ads and reduce both clutter and load time while you surf.

2. IE Tab – For those websites living in the past, IE Tab allows you to open an Internet Explorer-rendered page within Google Chrome, meaning you don’t have to re-open a new browser.

3. Google Mail Checker – A small Chrome extension to display the number of items in your Gmail inbox. A handy tool to reduce the amount of visits you make to the Gmail website.

4. Chromed Bird – A fantastic little Twitter account inside your Google browser – this chrome extension allows you to keep up to date with your time line.

5. Google Similar Pages (beta) – Following a similar concept to StumbleUpon, Similar Pages allows you to view similar pages to the one you a currently browsing.

6. Facebook for Google Chrome – This unofficial Facebook extension allows you to view your feed, wall and update your status without having to visit the Facebook website.

7. FlashBlock – This Google Chrome extension allows you to block flash on websites. You can block all flash, be selective or setup an embedded white list.

8. TooManyTabs – Tabs are obviously a big part in the Chrome browsing experience, and this extension lets you manage all of your tabs when you have one too many open.

9. Wikipedia Chromium Edition – A Wikipedia extension that allows you to quickly search the encyclopedia in seconds, allowing you to have all of the information at your fingertips.

10. Ibrii – A social extension that allows you to ‘snip’ everything from pictures and videos to web pages. You can share all of your findings on Twitter, Facebook and more.

So there you have it. The Top 10 Google Chrome extensions that are currently available. As support for extensions hasn’t been available for very long, this list will probably become outdated as time goes on – so grab them while they’re hot! Obviously the above list contains a broad range of plugins that are mostly to do with day-to-day browsing. There are many great ones available that are specific to certain areas, such as ‘FireBug Lite’ for web development/design, ‘Amazon Deals’ for shoppers and ‘Slideshow’ for photographers.

Time will tell if Google succeeds in prevailing over Mozilla in the browser wars, but it is certainly looking like Firefox has got a strong competitor. One good thing about the release of extended support for Google Chrome is the (hopefully) soon demise of Internet Explorer users.

First impressions of Google Chrome web browser -”It’s simple to use; clean in appearance and really user-friendly”.

Look: When I first opened Google Chrome browser, I didn’t know what to expect; I found an internet browser that is very clean in appearance. Google has gone for a minimalistic approach which is perfect. The overall design of the web browser appears to be sleek and modern.

Functions: Google Chrome offers striking new features. When the browser is first opened, a gallery will appear – showing which sites you have visited most. This is a very handy feature if you don’t like continually typing in website addresses, or having to use a search engine to find what you need.

Tabs are also used in the web browser; however, the tabs are positioned at the very top of the browser, this is quite handy, as it reduces clutter between the website address and the main web page. The tab functions similarly to Internet Explorer 8.

In addition, Google has added a new Task Manager feature, which allows you to monitor individual websites’ CPU usage. This comes in handy when you find a website that uses a lot of resources and may crash your browser. This program is useful for avoiding web browser crashes.

Another feature is Incognito mode – aka “privacy mode”. Incognito mode allows you to browse the web anonymously because your web browsing activity won’t be recorded in your web history folder; however, it won’t stop websites from collecting information about your browsing activity. You will notice a dark grey window when Incognito mode is turned on.

Google Chrome also has a quick bookmarking function. To bookmark a website, just click the star button next to the website address bar; this couldn’t be simpler. Google Chrome also has a simple downloading interface. When downloading a file, the file downloading progress will show in the browser, once the download has finished, you can drag the file onto the desktop (within the browser window) to add to your desktop.

Verdict:

Google Chrome is such a useful web browser: its sleek design and ease of use, makes it very versatile browser. I prefer Google Chrome browser to Internet Explorer 8.0, because it is so simple to use and the minimalistic approach allows you to concentrate on what you are looking for, rather than a browser with loads of unnecessary gadgets (Internet Explorer).

What are you waiting for? Try it for yourself!

What is Google Chrome?

Google Chrome is the web browser released in September 2008 by the Google Team, which thrust Google into the already crowded Web Browser market. At the browser’s introduction, Internet Explorer held about 75% market share, Firefox was at around 15%, and Safari was at around 3-5%. The rest of the market was made up of smaller specialty browsers like Opera or Flock.

So What’s the Big Deal?

Well, Google had been fairly adamant in stating that they were not developing a web browser when it was initially rumored that they would enter the market. Industry insiders suggested Google would release a browser as the company had been slowly but surely venturing into new territory. Google had developed a webmail program with Gmail, a calendar web app, a document and spreadsheet app, an rss feeder, and plenty more. It was believed that it was only a matter of time before they developed a browser to house all of these web applications. In September 2008, 4 years after rumors initially began, Google entered the market.

Ok, Well What Makes it Different?

Chrome was developed with the intention of getting out of the user’s way. The development team had decided early on that the content that was being interacted with by the user should be the entire focus. This is reflected in the user interface of Chrome, which has a small “frame” size, and for the most part, lacks any shiny distracting functions.

In addition, the Chrome team developed the browser with speed in mind. The framework of the browser is based on the WebKit platform, which is also the basis of Apple’s Safari. WebKit is typically very fast and efficient, and served as a great starting point for development of Chrome. The altered WebKit framework specific to Chrome is called Chromium, which is an open source platform.Because of the complexity of some of the web applications on the Internet, the Chrome developers believed that it would be important that the browser could maintain stable whilst interpreting these applications. The team created a system which gave each tab its own process which could be killed if it became unresponsive, without effecting the other tab processes.The browser also offers Incognito, which is a private browsing feature. When Incognito is activated, no cookies, cache, or history is saved. After the Incognito browsing session is completed, there will be no record of that session saved. This is especially useful for public or shared computers.The browser also utilizes a JavaScript engine known as V8, which was developed from scratch by Google. V8 was designed to simplify JavaScript which is simultaneously becoming more prevalent and more complex in the web today.

The jury is still out on whether Google will be successful marketing the Nexus One to the average consumer but when your product is endorsed by a giant in the Open Source community, you know you are on the right track.

Linux Torvalds, best known for developing the Linux Kernel, acknowledged that “the Nexus One is a winner” and has replaced his rarely used G1 phone.

What is his view of cellphones in general?  His direct quote,  “I generally hate phones–they are irritating and disturb you as you work or read or whatever–and a cell phone to me is just an opportunity to be irritated wherever you are”.

What changed Torvalds’s mind about this horrid device called a cellphone, “I no longer feel like I’m dragging a phone with me ‘just in case’ I would need to get in touch with somebody – now I’m having a useful (and admittedly pretty good-looking) gadget instead. The fact that you can use it as a phone too is kind of secondary.  I’ve wanted to have a GPS unit for my car anyway, and I thought that google navigation might finally make a phone useful.”

The Android OS is an open source mobile platform that is fully customizable which allows developers total control and ease of application development.  There are currently 20,000 plus applications available and that number is expected to skyrocket.
