Google Chrome on MiniNova, Pirate Bay
p2pnet news view P2P | Advertising:- It’s kind of appropriate (if not ironic 
) that Google, not only the net’s largest, and most voracious, advertising company, but also one of, if not the, largest indexing sites, should be using The Pirate Bay and MiniNova to tout its Chrome O/S.
It’s “appeared on several peer-to-peer BitTorrent tracking sites,” says Computerworld, going on Google bragged Chrome will be “faster” and “more secure” than other systems “when it ships late next year”, says the story.
“Google” and “secure” in the same sentence is something of an oxymoron.
Meanwhile, “While Microsoft has predictably pooh-poohed Chrome OS as nothing for it to worry about, some analysts have argued that Google’s entry into the operating system market marks the beginning of a ‘fight to the death’ between the two technology giants,”says the story.
Who’ll be the winner?
And would you want to rely on an operating system created by Google, open source or not?
On the other hand, anything which threatens Microsoft’s monopoly must have some merits.
Google says the first netbooks loaded with Chrome “won’t reach shelves until late in 2010,” says Computerworld.
Stay tuned.
