Google CR-48: Getting Started
There are plenty of reviews of the new Cr-48 Chrome notebook running Chrome OS. I’m not going to duplicate that. I’ve found that some of the major tips on how things work are a bit scattered, so I thought it would be good to compile them into one place. This guide is designed to get you productive on the Cr-48 quickly.

3 Comments The Cr-48 running Chrome OS is so dull
After two weeks living in the cloud as part of the Google’s Pilot Program for its Chrome operating system and the Cr-48 laptop, I find the whole thing dull; that’s a good thing though.

Inside I saw the Cr-48 box I had seen in a YouTube unboxing video and you guessed it, a Google ChromeOS Cr-48. Oh the magic of Christmas, long gone since my childhood, had returned to my warm my heart once more.

2 Comments Google CR-48 Chrome Notebook – Unboxing
Just a day after Google announced the release of the Chrome OS Beta and the CR-48 Chrome Notebook, it seems like a lucky individual has already received the device this morning! There was a lot of disappointment when many Google fans found out that the CR-48 was only available for those in the USA. Even for those based in the USA it may not be that easy to get one of these babies; Google is only having 60,000 of these devices manufactured. If you are interested in getting one (and if you are in the USA) you may apply here.

1 Comment Cloud Canvas – Pushing The Boundaries Of HTML5
It’s been a couple of months since I wrote about the progress of the Google Web Store. Back then I showcased a number of Web Apps which were still in their early stages of development. Ever since then, a lot has changed; Web Apps have ‘evolved’ and are now ready for the imminent release of the Google Web Store and the much anticipated Chrome OS.

9 Comments Chrome OS vs WebOS
Earlier on last week we examined the startling similarities between Google’s Chrome OS and Jolicloud. Of-course Chrome OS hasn’t even been released yet, but I felt it more than fitting to compare the two operating systems by virtue of the purpose that they either serve or will attempt to serve in the future.
