CHROME OS.Doc INTRODUCTION Chrome notebooks are built and optimized for the web, where you already spend most of your computing time. So you get a faster, simpler and more secure experience without all the headaches of ordinary computers. Company / developer Google Inc. Programmed in C C++ OS family Unix-like Working state Source code released as Chromium OS Latest stable release 0.11.257.44 (Beta) / April 14, 2011; Latest unstable release 0.12.397.0 (Dev) / April 14, 2011 Kernel type Monolithic (Linux) Default User Interface Graphical interface based on the Google Chrome Browser Official website google.com/chromeos/ Google Chrome OS is basically a cloud operating system. CLOUD COMPUTING Computing as a “utility” rather than a product Refers to the provision of computational resources on demand via a computer network. User computer may contain almost no data or software. Users don’t log on the server, but the service Technically: Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. Chrome OS Architecture User Interface Chrome Web Browser Google Gears: Gmail Web Server Google Calendar • System Google Reader Database Application •User Application Google Docs Google.com Internet Picasa Window Manager Web Kit Libraries Media Framework Graphics Libraries Linux Kernel Hardware Design Goals User Interface Minimal screen space by combining applications and standard web pages into a single tab strip Secondary tasks would be handled with "panels“: windows that dock to the bottom of the screen Hardware Support intended for secondary devices like netbooks not as a user's primary PC will run on hardware incorporating an x86 or ARM-based processor. Google Chrome OS consumes one-sixtieth as much drive space as Windows 7. Design Goals (Contd…) Remote Application Access A technology unofficially called "Chromoting“ Resemble Microsoft's Remote Desktop Connection Running an application via Terminal Services or by first connecting to a host machine: Remoting • Linux shell access Crosh: The Chrome Shell :A Bash-like shell with minimal functionality In developer’s mode a full featured shell can be opened Design Goals (Contd…) Printing Google Cloud Print: Help any application on any device to print on any printer. the cloud service would entail installing a piece of software, called a proxy, as part of Chrome OS. The proxy would register the printer with the service, manage the print jobs, provide the printer driver functionality, and give status alerts for each job. Design Goals (Contd…) Link Handling Unresolved design problem: how Web applications handle specific link types. i.e.Which website or Web application should be invoked when a particular file type is clicked (eg. .doc,.jpeg,etc). • Security auto-updating and sandbox features that will reduce malware exposure initial boot code, stored in read-only memory, checks for system compromises physical switch under the battery compartment that actuates a developer mode. • Integrated Media player To play back MP3s, view JPEGs, and handle other multimedia files while OFFLINE. Features The Cr-48 NoteBook •Fast start-up and performance Start your notebook and get to the Internet in about 10 seconds. Once you sign in on your Chrome notebook, you're instantly on the web. •Constant connectivity Because a Chrome notebook without the Internet isn't all that useful, its easy for you to stay online using Wi-Fi or 3G from the Verizon Wireless Network (U.S. only). To make sure that you get the latest features and security fixes, your Chrome notebook automatically updates whenever it detects that a new system version is available. •Built-in security Our security features help prevent malware or viruses from accessing your data. If a webpage misbehaves, it won't bring down your other tabs or break your notebook. •Everything is stored online Since everything is done online, you'll always have access to your data, no matter what computer you're using. All your bookmarks, apps, extensions, and web settings can be saved to your Google Account, using the sync feature. •Access to the Chrome Web Store The store features a wide range of apps, extensions, and themes for the browser. Many web applications are capable of functionality that you expect from traditional desktop software on an ordinary computer. Logic Behind the name “Cr-48” The Notebook got the name "Cr-48" from the isotope of chromium metal.

Sharing Content with CR-48 Drawbacks No Desktop Less applications Media Playback Very less local storage No pre-installed office application No Games Long term costs No programming No hardcore use Its all Google The Pilot Program Its something similar to the beta programs. Most beta programs deal with software, Google’s Pilot Program is for both hardware and software. Users can register for it and if selected, the user will be allowed to take home the Google Chrome CR-48 notebook for free and test it for some time. The users can test the speed and the ease of use of both the hardware and the software of Chrome CR-48 notebook and provide feedback. .

  • Subscribing Via Google Reader to RSS Feeds & Classroom Blogs
    Subscribing Via Google Reader to RSS Feeds & Classroom Blogs All of our classrooms at MJGDS have their own blog. Several grade levels are piloting individual student portfolios based on a blogging platform. • How do you keep up with all this information? • How do you filter and organize it? • How can you avoid having to go back to blogs to check if the owner has updated with a new post? The RSS feed comes to the rescue! According to Wikipedia RSS is defined as: “RSS (most commonly expanded as Really Simple Syndication) is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated works—such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video—in a standardized format. An RSS document (which is called a "feed", "web feed", or "channel") includes full or summarized text, plus metadata such as publishing dates and authorship. Web feeds benefit publishers by letting them syndicate content automatically. They benefit readers who want to subscribe to timely updates from favored websites or to aggregate feeds from many sites into one place. RSS feeds can be read using software called an "RSS reader", "feed reader", or "aggregator", which can be web-based, desktop-based, or mobile-device-based.” Licensed under Creative Commons Subscribe via RSS Google Reader to Classroom Blogs. Silvia Rosenthal Tolisano~ Langwitches Blog~ Globally Connected Learning Consultant Subscribing Via Google Reader to RSS Feeds & Classroom Blogs Start scanning websites you frequent for different variations of this RSS feed icon. Some will have the icon listed in a prominent place on the website, others will just have a text link in the sidebar of footer of the page or some will have NO sign that there is an RSS feed available.

  • *How to Subscribe to an RSS Feed Using Google Reader
    *How to subscribe to an RSS feed using Google Reader: Many times you come across a great web site or blog you really like to read, and it would be great to be notified when something new is posted to it. Really Simple Syndication (RSS) might sound like a complicated term, but it will help you do just that, and you don’t really even have to know what it means! Often blogs and some web sites have an RSS “feed” you can subscribe to. There are different ways to subscribe to an RSS feed, and Google Reader is only one of them, but it’s really easy to set up and use. It’s one of Google’s free applications, so you only need to have a Google Gmail account to begin with. Once you are logged into Gmail, you will see "Reader" on the menu bar on the top left. Click on it to open it. This is where your RSS feeds will show up when you subscribe. Just click on each link to see the new page posting. Now let's subscribe to the TECH BITS blog! If a web page has an RSS feed, you will see either a little icon on the right side of the address bar or an RSS icon somewhere near the top of the page. (The TECH BITS blog has the RSS Subscribe button you see here.) To subscribe, just click on the icon and you will be able to choose Subscribe to RSS. When you select this, you will see the option to subscribe using Google.
