Is Chromoting the future of Computing?

,----[ Quote ]
| Sorry, I just could not resist a really 
| lame title like that. For those of you who 
| do not already know we will describe what 
| Chromoting is. Not a whole lot of 
| information has been released about 
| Chromoting and it is still in development. 
| But so far what we know is that Chromoting 
| is a feature that is being developed for 
| Chrome OS, Googleâs spin of the Linux 
| operating system. What it will do is enable

Google morphs Chrome OS into netbook thin client

,----[ Quote ]
| Google's Chrome OS â the operating system 
| that moves all apps and data into a web 
| browser â will provide remote access to 
| "legacy PC applications" through a mystery 
| process the company calls Chromoting, 
| according to an email from a Google 
| employee.

Google pays $2,000 for report of a vulnerability in Chrome

,----[ Quote ]
| Google has paid out its highest sum yet, 
| $2,000, for the discovery of a 
| vulnerability found in its Chrome browser. 
| The recipient is developer Sergey Glazunov, 
| who found a DOM method-related means of 
| circumventing the same origin policy. 
| Details of the vulnerability are not yet 
| publicly available, but it is likely that 
| it could allow a web page to access content 
| from other web pages. Google classifies the 
| risk as high. Update 5.0.375.70 for 
| Windows, Mac and Linux resolves the 
| problem.

More Details on Google Cloud Print for Chrome OS 

,----[ Quote ]
| Google Chrome OS has set itself quite a 
| hard-to-reach goal, namely to make 
| everything a web app. Google has said from 
| the beginning that there will be no native 
| applications for Chrome OS except the 
| Chrome browser itself. While web apps today 
| are capable of amazing things, nobody, not 
| even everyone at Google, believes that they 
| can replace any native app and OS 
| capability out there.

Google: âWith Chrome OS, Net access will be in a few secondsâ

,----[ Quote ]
| The product manager Anders Sandholm behind the
| scenes development of Chrome and Chrome 5 OS.
| Two programs pursuing the same goal: faster
| access to Web applications.
|
| With 40 million users, Chrome is now the third
| most used browser in the world. A software
| that Google has managed to impose only a year
| and a half, thanks to a marketing campaign
| unprecedented for a browser. This is just the
| beginning.
