The Google Chrome OS

The operating systems that browsers run on were designed in an era where there was no web. So today, Google announces a new project that's a natural extension of Google Chrome — the Google Chrome Operating System. This OS can challenge windows and has advantages over Linux. It's Google attempt to re-think what operating systems should be.

Google Chrome OS is an open source, lightweight operating system that will initially be targeted at netbooks.It will be available for consumers in the second half of 2010. They are designing power computers ranging from small notebooks to full-size desktop systems.

Speed, simplicity and security are the key aspects of Google Chrome OS. This OS to be fast and lightweight, to start up and get you onto the web in a few seconds. The user interface is minimal to stay out of your way, and most of the user experience takes place on the web. And as they did for the Google Chrome browser. Google going back to the basics and completely redesigning the underlying security architecture of the OS so that users don't have to deal with viruses, malware and security updates.

Google Chrome OS will run on both x86 as well as ARM chips and working with multiple OEMs to bring a number of netbooks to market next year. The software architecture is simple — Google Chrome running within a new windowing system on top of a Linux kernel. For application developers, the web is the platform. All web-based applications will automatically work and new applications can be written using your favorite web technologies. And of course, these apps will run not only on Google Chrome OS, but on any standards-based browser on Windows, Mac and Linux thereby giving developers the largest user base of any platform.

You can email instantly, without wasting time in booting up computer or browser to start up. You need not to worry for backing up the files. You can access you data from any place. No need to spend much time in configuring your hardware and it’s all you should concern for software updates.

It will be a good experience and benefits for users who spend much time on internet.

How To Force Stop "Not Responding" Programs In Windows XP, Windows Vista And Windows 7

Unresponsive programs in Windows quoting the dreadful message "Not Responding" are a common if you are a Windows user. These programs simply don’t listen to your commands and even refuse to close. They irritatingly waste your time and stay on the screen until they close which normally takes a long time.

Sometimes these frozen programs force you to open the Task Manager, detect the appropriate process and then end the process manually from there as they do not close on their own. This can be a horrible experience especially if you a Windows Vista user. Thankfully, there is an easier way out to close these frozen programs! Here’s how you do it.

1) Right click on your Desktop and click New>Shortcut.

2) Copy the following location: taskkill.exe /f /fi “status eq not responding” on to the text box in the window that opens.

3) That’s it. You are now done! From now on, anytime some program displays "Not Responding", just clicking on the shortcut will automatically detect and terminate the unresponsive program.

4) To make it even more easier you can even assign a shortcut key to open the shortcut using Keyboard Tweaker.

How To Open Every Folder In a New Window On Your Windows PC

While going through the various folders and sub-folders on any computer system, it is sometimes quite irritating that folders/sub-folders do not open in new folders. Windows however has an in-built option to make folders open in new windows. Here’s how you do it.

1. Click on ‘Start’
2. Go to ‘Control Panel’. You can find a link to Control Panel in the right side of the Start Menu.
3. Click on ‘Folder Options’.

4. Now from the “General’ tab, select the radio button next to ‘Open each folder in its own window.’
5. Click on ‘Apply’ and ‘OK’ to complete the process.

Now all folders will open in new windows.

How To Sign Out Remotely In Gmail?

Gmail all day, no matter what computer we are using, we may sometimes use other people’s computers to access your Gmail remotely. It is always a good idea for security reasons to log out of Gmail whenever we finish using a given computer, but we users don’t always do what we’re supposed to do.

Gmail has our back, with the ability to sign out of any Gmail session from any computer we are using at the time. It’s been available for a year, but bears reminding for those who forget such things. Just click on the details link at the bottom of the main Gmail screen:




This will pop up a window that shows the details about your recent activity and list all currently open sessions. Just tap the button to log out of all other sessions remotely to start a clean slate.

Features Of Windows 7 On A Vista Or XP System

Media Streaming

What it is: Windows Vista can already stream music, videos, and other content between networked PCs in your house, but Windows 7 goes a step farther: It makes your media available over the Internet. By taking advantage of that option, you can watch a recorded TV show at a friend's house, say, or stream your mammoth music library to your storage-strapped netbook.
How to get it: The new OS's media-sharing system has at least one major drawback: It requires Windows 7 to be running at both ends. Third-party alternatives, on the other hand, usually have no problem with different versions of Windows--or even with different platforms (Mac and Linux). Simply Media, for example, can stream music files saved in various formats from your desktop music library (or from any friends whom you care to invite) to any other PC. An associated iPhone app (Simplify Music 2.0) handles streaming on the run. Both the software and the service are free.
Another possibility is Orb, which streams music, videos, photos, and--if your PC has a TV tuner--live or recorded TV shows. Using Orb can even help you share documents.

ISO Burning

What it is: An ISO image is a single file that contains the archived contents of a CD or DVD. Windows 7 enables you to burn ISO images to optical media, so you can crank out your own bootable discs. (Microsoft distributed the Windows 7 Release Candidate as an ISO file, which users had to burn to a DVD for installation on their PCs. Ironically, anyone working on a Windows XP or Vista system needed to use third-party software to handle the job.)

How to get it: Several free utilities can burn ISO images from Windows XP or Vista PCs (and with more options than you'll get in Windows 7). I'm partial to ISO Recorder, but you may also want to try Active ISO Burner or Isobuster.

Improved Windows Paint

What it is: Windows' ancient, bare-bones graphics program, Paint, finally gets a thorough remodeling in Windows 7, complete with a jazzy new Ribbon interface (very similar to the one that people either love or hate in Office 2007), additional brush and shape choices, and various small but meaningful tweaks.

How to get it: Though you can't obtain Windows 7 Paint in Vista or XP, several similar Vista- and XP-compatible programs are even better. Regular PC World readers have seen us talk frequently of the open-source GIMP and the freeware Paint.Net, two Photoshop-caliber image editors. Either of these apps can run circles around Win 7's Paint, and neither will cost you a dime.

Calculator

What it is: Though Paint underwent an extreme makeover in Windows 7, the operating system's new Calculator was built from the ground up. This spiffy new number-cruncher includes Programmer, Statistic, and Scientific modes, and comes with handy templates for figuring stuff like mortgage payments and gasoline mileage.
How to get it: Some time ago, interested parties extracted the actual Windows 7 Calculation Code from an early build of the operating system, and that code has been making the tech-blog rounds ever since. It runs just fine in XP and Vista. If you're averse to bootlegs, you can get most of the number-wrangling you need, free of charge, from eCalc.

Windows Search
What it is: Vista owners already enjoy the benefits of Windows' integrated search capabilities, which help users easily find specific apps, documents, e-mail messages, and the like. Windows 7 promises to make search results more coherent and to integrate them with Libraries for better organization.

How to get it: Windows Search is one of the main reasons I don't miss Windows XP--it's that good. How can an XP user take a similar step up? Simple: Install Copernic Desktop Search, which indexes all of the e-mail, documents, and media on your hard drive to permit lightning-fast searches. In fact, even Vista and Win 7 users should check it out, since it supports many more file types (the total exceeds 150) than Windows Search.

Windows XP Mode
What it is: When Vista debuted in 2007, a lengthy procession of unanticipated software incompatibilities drove users crazy. To help assuage fears about Windows 7's dexterity with older applications at its launch, Microsoft recently announced Windows XP Mode--an add-on that runs veteran programs in a "virtual" XP environment, thereby guaranteeing operational compatibility.

How to get it: You probably don't need it. XP Mode was created with business users in mind, since incompatible applications can be an extremely serious problem for them. As a result, it's available only for Windows 7 Professional, Ultimate, and Enterprise. That said, if you use Vista and you're still struggling with software compatibility issues, try Microsoft's Windows Virtual PC. This offers more or less the same capabilities as Windows XP Mode (which is essentially a specialized version of Virtual PC). Warning: Microsoft admits that this program may not work when loaded on netbooks or on other recent PCs.

Internet Explorer 8
What it is: Scoff away, Firefox snobs, but Internet Explorer 8 is a browser to be reckoned with. It's faster and more secure than previous versions of IE, and it offers unique features such as Web Slices (reminiscent of RSS feeds, and designed to help you keep tabs on changes at regularly updated sites) and InPrivate Browsing (which leaves no trace of your surfing activities).

How to get it: Internet Explorer 8's amped-up antimalware and antiphishing features make it well worth using. The browser runs just fine in Vista and XP, and it is available for download for either OS. Some Vista users will receive it automatically through Windows Update.

Unique Features Of Windows 7

Device Stage: Whereas Vista barely seems to recognize the presence of cameras, phones, printers, and other external devices, Windows 7's Device Stage treats them like royalty. The operating system devotes a slick-looking status window to each device, so you can browse files, manage media, and perform other device-specific tasks.

HomeGroup: At long last, Microsoft promises to take the pain and frustration out of home networking for users of its operating system. Set up a HomeGroup, and then add PCs and other devices--and without further ado you can share files, printers, and the like. Why did it take seven versions of Windows to get this right?

Jump Lists: Like souped-up Recent Documents menus, Jump Lists provide quick access to application-specific documents and/or tasks. For example, you can right-click the Internet Explorer taskbar icon and choose from a list of frequently visited Web sites or from a list of available tasks (such as New Tab and InPrivate). Once you get started using Jump Lists, you'll wonder how you ever got along without them.

Libraries: Most of us have documents, music, pictures, and video scattered across multiple folders on our PCs. Libraries are special folders in Windows 7 that catalog these items under a single roof, regardless of where you actually store them on your hard drive. And best of all, Libraries are easy to share within your HomeGroup.


One-click Wi-Fi: Unlike Windows Vista, Windows 7 makes choosing a wireless network to connect to simple and convenient: Click the system-tray icon, and choose from the resulting list of available hotspots. Granted, you can find third-party connection managers for Vista, but nothing this streamlined and unobtrusive.
