Google is working on releasing a brand new operating system, called Chrome OS, that is based on its Chrome browser. Initially, the small OS will be aimed at low-cost and low-power netbooks, but will eventually head towards PCs.

Chrome OS will be capable of running on an x86 machine (normal Intel & AMD processors) and ARM chips. Google is currently working with OEMs to ship Chrome OS with some new netbooks starting in the second half of 2010.

Until earlier this year, all of our websites were designed & developed with Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox compatibility mainly in mind. Since the turn of the year, we have had to ensure our websites were compatible with the newest and fast upcoming browser – Google Chrome. Like Firefox, Chrome is an open-source browser that allow users to browse fast and securely with ease. We have found the switch from Firefox to be seamless as they are very similar in appearance and functionality.

Chrome Pros

  • Address bar includes powerful search with results from your default search engine
  • Tabs and windows are interchangeable – detachable and attachable
  • Application shortcuts for web-only applications such as Gmail or Calendar
  • Private browsing without tracking browsing history

Chrome Cons

  • No addons/developer extentions like Firefox available yet
  • Potentially high memory usage if too many tabs are open as each is its own process

We highly recommend everyone to download Chrome or at least upgrade to the newly released Firefox 3.5 for the best possible Internet surfing experience.
