It has been quite a lot of Google talk lately and we have thoroughly enjoyed it. From the coming of the Chrome Web Store to the Google Nexus S and the Chrome OS but I guess we missed out the most important news here. Google is offering its Chrome OS Netbooks right on the release of the OS itself. The launch was made spicier when Google decided to giveaway a few of these netbooks to selected people for testing. How?

The D: Dive into Mobile event was quite eventful in its own way. We saw the release of the Google Nexus S from Samsung and the coming of the Chrome OS as well. However the more essential announcement in my opinion was the official launch of the Google Chrome Web Store. Call it the the App Store of Google for the Chrome web browser and the Chrome OS, but the name doesn’t matter much as long as it has the name Google linked to it.

There has been a lot of fuss indeed over the coming of the Google Chrome OS since July last year. We have seen it running on the Apple iPad and Google’s plans to use the Chrome OS to power iPad competitors alike. But today reports broke out about the upcoming Google Chrome OS Event which is scheduled to take place on December 7 in San Francisco.

Google has finally pushed out the source code of its much awaited Chrome OS just before the planned press event. The whole idea is Open Source and the development is quite similar to that of the Chrome browser. Well Open Source is not all there. since Google plans to take the entire computing to the Cloud, meaning Google plans to make sure that even if you get to lose your device, the data stays intact and is accessible the moment you can log on. While I doubt how many PC users would actually go ahead to use this, but with the growing trend of more powerful netbooks coming, the Cloud based OS would definitely become the first choice for all users and with Google behind this one, I bet it’s going to make it big. Not that I am a Google fan-boy or something, but it is just the amount of rigorous development it does.

With all the confusion surrounding the Google Chrome OS project, the Google might just announce its launch in the coming week. The biggest issue to present remains the shadowy nature of the hardware drivers which its engineers desperately try to work on. The other bit of rumor also states that Google is pushing hardware manufacturers to help create drivers for them. Now, this OS might be one of the best decisions by Google of late, but if this driver issue isn’t brought to attention the whole thing might just fall apart. This indicates the obvious, Chrome OS will not be functional on any device out there and might be fully supported on a select few perhaps Lenovo, HP, to name a couple.
