Google has not yet built an operating system and Marissa mayer, the vice president of search products and user experience recently denied of any such possibility in future.
I still thought on this issue and just wildly thought of how the Operating system would look like. Being bad at photoshop and other image editors I thought I'd leave it to somebody else to put it on his blog, but the thing in my scope was to try and list the salient features of google OS, in case it comes. I've put a list of 5 such features.
Zero boot time : Yup, it sounds unpractical today and my XP, I feel takes an eternity to log on,more so if its AVG Antivrus starts scanning at start up. The puzzling part is that how is it achievable. Solution is simple. The PC will boot the boot OS, yes a boot OS for the OS. That boot OS will simply act as a platform for you to connect to the internet onto the google server and there your OS will lie, which will already be booted. SO you see, boot time is practically zero.
Security : My laptop is full of viruses. Even the antivirus gets puzzled figuring out what to do. Imagine gooogle using its security technology to do it for you. So you see the security lies in the hands of google and not your free antivirus.
Privacy : This seems quite vague, but let me tell you privacy could be more. Today you key in your password to log in to your laptop. Imagine a public/shared PC. Anyone can open, read and edit your documents and can take then in a thumb drive. Once you log out from your OS, the files on the server will automatically become inaccessible to all others.
License Cost : The cost of buying original softwares, word editors, antiviruses is high. Imagine all provided to free by google. The best of the tehnology for free.
File sharing : Today we email our files to send them to a remote desktop or pass them on through our thumb drive. In the google OS you will simply key in the google identity number(GIN) of your friend and simply push the file into his outdoor stack (A mail box).

Apple today announced that under certain conditions the new ultracompact Apple USB power adapter’s metal prongs can break off and remain in a power outlet, creating the risk of electric shock.
Apple has received reports of detached prongs involving a very small percentage of the adapters sold, but no injuries have been reported.
Customer safety is always Apple’s top priority so it has voluntarily decided to exchange every ultracompact power adapter for a new redesigned adapter, free of charge. For more details on the exchange program please Click here.

Clean Internet Campaign
Monday, September 15, 2008 |
Posted by
Sushant Kumar
Today with terrorism on the rise we as responsible followers of humanity can take a step forward to make the internet a cleaner place. As you browse the internet on daily basis, watch videos on youtube and do a lot of social interactivty on the web, you might have observed a lot of comments,posts and threads that are full of hate, which is baseless and is intended to harm others. As responsible internet messiahs we can flag them, it only takes a few seconds or in case of hate mails, just delete them and forward a mail to all those who have received them to delete them. It could be a small step by a small group of people but as the number of profane internet geeks are good and run into millions, a few extra seconds could actually mean destroying the efforts of a few thousand insane internet users with an intention to harm others. But beware : Do not reply back to them with an anti hate mail or a comment. it'll just serve their cause. Best is to flag it. Chao!
