The rise of web applications and Chrome: it's all about timescales

,----[ Quote ]
| The significant thing about Chrome is that it 
| sets a new way of thinking. It does not mean 
| Chrome will dominate the world. Open standards 
| mean that other companies could provide 
| similar services. Itâs the 80% scenario. 80% 
| of what we do could be web based and probably 
| will be in the future. It is near 100% for 80% 
| of the population. It does not then make much 
| sense to have everyone running a desktop OS 
| just in case they might happen to want a 
| specialist application that is dependent on 
| that technology. Some people will still need 
| this, but not the majority.

| Google has made available for download the 
| second update of 2010 for its open source 
| browser. On January 6, the Mountain View-based 
| search giant has kicked up a notch the Dev 
| channel version of Google Chrome. Early 
| adopters can now grab Google Chrome Build 
| 4.0.288.1 through the developer channel, a 
| release which is available for all supported 
| platforms. Technically, Google Chrome Beta 
| Build 4.0.249.49 was the first release of the 
| open source browser this year.
