Chrome OS and the Google Pioneers

Avidly wondering if I was one of the thousands that won the free Chrome OS laptop called CR-48. It looks like there are three being delivered to my neighborhood according to this web app.

I’m wondering what the experience of the apps I’ve built will function like when in the new Chrome OS environment completely independent from a desktop.

What is the screen size?
What is the point of the camera built into it?
What will the real purpose of a machine like this serve besides (twitter, and facebook)?

I may have to tweak some of my apps that now rely on downloading to the desktop considering there is no desktop on the Chrome OS.

I have read mixed views about the Chrome OS pilot, but I think a fast simple computer that doesn’t slow you down on the web is a great idea and I’m all for it. I’ve become pretty addicted to the Chrome Browser since March 10′ when extensions came out, before I was a pretty extreme mozilla user who had so many extensions that the program would take countless minutes and memory to load up.

Anyway I hope I get one, maybe you will too. You can sign up to win one until December 24th.
So sign up now!

Web Store Launch…

As I anticipate the Chrome Web Store opening either on Monday or Tuesday,

I’m curious as to what it might look like and how it will function.

I’ve been developing for the Web Store since the news came out about it.

I feel I’m a bit ahead of the curve when it come to the “Chrome Web Store.”

I’m not sure how the apps that I have developed with function, but it feels like an early Christmas present from Google!

I’m sure I’ll write more soon.
