Google Chrome is Google's latest project engaging the world's interest. It started off as a very simple, lightweight and fast web browser for the Windows Operating System, currently up to version 4.0 beta which offers extensions for the first time. The browser also now has a version for the Macintosh and is built on the WebKit rendering engine. Google now has new plans for it's Chrome web browser, to turn it into an operating system to run on low powered netbooks. Some of the code has made it's way onto parts of the internet and has been compiled to work off USB sticks and virtual machines. The idea Google has for this OS is to be a way to push its online services including GMail and Google Calendar instead of running local versions of an application like Microsoft Office Outlook. I've managed to get myself a copy so I'll give you some detail here.
