Just a quick tip for Chromium users who are looking for a way to manage your bookmarks like me.
Here's the solution:
~/Library/Application\ Support/Chromium/Default/Bookmarks

I guess the big question on Google Chrome OS is: Are people ready for a web-only OS? I've been thinking about if/when in my everyday life I am not in a WiFi connection, and I honestly can't think of a time. I have one at home of course, my work has one -- although it's fairly crappy -- even my parents and in-laws have one. When I consider connectivity now, I say yeah, a web-only OS could work.
My second observation is that the first people to get a Chrome laptop will be tech enthusiasts, but that's not really who this is for. This is for people like my wife, who sit on the laptop in front of reruns of Gilmore GIrls and cruise facebook, or upload pictures of their kids onto Flickr. My wife would frickin' love a chrome netbook -- it's cheap, fast and runs everything she wants it to. She might feel a little weird about storing docs in the cloud at first, but she'd get used to it. And, honestly, she probably hasn't stored a doc outside of work in months.
My initial reaction is there will be a huge home-user market for Chrome OS. People just don't do a lot of functions outside of the web anymore.
I was too busy actually working I guess. But here' a quick demo video.
It´s simple, just a thought. I´m agree that, most of the part, we are on internet. Very good to become an "conditional" Open Source project, lovely thing than Canonical works together with the big G, around the project, but: Do you want an "ubuntized" world?....
Dont create an iso file for simple download is a mess...In some point, the GNU and the Linux itself project, are outside the show. Reason?: People will think that they are use Google OS, but no Open Source Software.
"Engadget turns the design stakes up to 11, Google finally dishes the dirt on Chrome OS, and now you can even download the forthcoming software to have a fiddle with yourself. It's completely free, though you'll need VMWare running atop a Windows, Linux or OS X installation to make the magic happen."
In case you missed it, Google is turning their magnificent web browser, Chrome, into an entire web operating system, cleverly named Chrome OS. For those of us who use many web applications, this OS "should" offer a cheaper, friendlier opportunity to computing.
