If Microsoft has launched big into the search engine market with the release of decision engine Bing, Google has replied strongly by releasing its own operating system Google Chrome Operating System. Both the tech biggies are trying to encroach into each other’s footprints and the war is heating up .Only time will say the devourer and devoured.

Furthermore they are collaborating with other open source communities to make it big.

“Speed, simplicity and security” will form the basic essence of the chrome OS.

There will be minimal user interface in Google Chrome which will directly take the user into the web in few moments. Chrome will take the probability of attacking viruses and other malwares to almost zero.

Chrome will be a treat for application developers who can develop their applications in any web based applications which will be compatible in all well known web browsers like windows or Mac.

Chrome Promises to increase the computing time of the user rather wasting time on configuring hardware, software, booting and undue file management. Google chrome will aid people to stay connected all the while.

Google has also cleared the fact that Google Chrome and Android are different projects though both are cross functional in many aspects .Android is another open source project on Google’s card which will be compatible across many hard ware’s for instance phones, notebooks, etc.
