Living on the Web with Chrome OS

7 comments March 31st, 2011 7 comments

The Os Chrome is an operating system (OS) created by Google that has as its main feature is based on the network. This means that the only software you need is a web browser.

The manufacturer takes the premise that all activities are conducted daily on the Internet, our computer thus becomes a "dumb terminal" where we type only website addresses and execute our tasks.

At the moment there is a " pilot program "(for residents) to test the OS on which Google provides a Notebook Cr-48 (ugly name!) it takes to boot a brief 10 seconds. So what we see on screen is a minimalist web browser: Chrome.

How is Chrome OS?

As we begin our session on the computer with the user of Gmail, we access our mail, contacts, calendar and chat. The browser sync and keep our state in case the notebook fails, explode, was stolen or simply loguearamos us on another machine with Chrome OS and keep all the state it was: open tabs in the same order, the documents "auto -saved "with the last words typed and chat with someone asking" are you there? ".

To edit documents online have the Google Docs, where you can write text, complete spreadsheets, to "Powerpoint presentations." Also through the Chrome Market we have access to hundreds of free and paid applications that offer solutions to all the needs we have: productivity, lifestyle, communication and most importantly, games.

Some pros

TooDo TooDo updates alone, that is operating system-which is basically being a webbrowser, is periodically updated from the Internet to keep us safe and the latest innovations of the network to date.
The system is super lightweight and running quickly, we think that technically all the processor and computer memory is dedicated exclusively to sail, "comfortable" on the internet. And that's plenty of processing power and speed in 2011.

Some points against

Have all our files, photos, videos and uploaded to the network identity is a bit scary if someone managed to figure out our personal access code.

So ...

All this could not have existed a few years ago, it required fast computers with large memory, internet, a society that increasingly turns to the network to share knowledge, the development of HTML5, Web 2.0, the appearance of Cloud computing, mobile telephony, cheaper costs and all that to put our lives-compressed-on multiple servers in the world.

The Chrome OS is a good approach to a new operating system, to shake the saga Windows from Microsoft that was dominating the home market for over 20 years and, at least, concerned about the rise of OS X from Apple. It has good advantages especially for its speed and simplicity of use and the great integration of the powerful and multipurpose "world of Google."

Popego, the popular ego to reach

Logo de Popego

.

The first news I had of Popego , said that Santiago Siri had reached Argentina locate a site in the top 50 of world prestigious event of TechCrunch . I was surprised, I was overjoyed to hear about how good it was positioning a website compatriot globally.


What is it? How did he do? How much cover? Is it business? Were the first questions I asked myself.

For starters, the site has a name that describes him from head to toe: Ego Pop.
In this new (old?) Social network age, the fluid communication between people, contacts, references, the navigator is full of sites and services to feed his ego. His "I". Your photos, your videos, your stories, your comments, opinions, votes. The brainchild of this site is that of nuclear various services that are subscribed to the egocentric navigator and concentrate in Autoblog.

But that's for sure? and my privacy?

equalizador de tus gustos

Yes yes yes ... is it safe, stay quiet lady. Two things, privacy and almost does not exist , especially in teenagers and new internet-social tribes seeking emerging popularity is in the exhibition and second, the site's brother Liniers public access only to user profiles, without requiring user and password for other services.
If you have a Picassa album or Flickr (or both!) You know them you can set the scope of privacy desired for the album is public or restricted to persons you designate. If the photos are public, then you can tell him Popego "Hey Popego!, Knows more about my profile on my public album of Mar del Plata".
Similarly, we can tell that you review our services Popego YouTube videos, blog, Reader, Delicious, Twitter and many other services (Facebook coming soon).

And that's not all.

With all that ball data, tags, keywords, image and multimedia material the site of the orange smiley face is not satisfied. Want more. And going for more.
Personally I buenisima the idea seemed to there to the autoblog with my items for various services concentrated in one place.
But it seems that the boy of the lens was given to advance and improve the idea. Maybe that's the break to get to be one of the 50 best sites of 2008 .

Popego takes our "likes" (taste), processed our profile and provides us with new data. Of course, when we endorse our services turn you were saying "Hey Popego, I like reading science fiction, my language is Spanish, my tags are Computer Science and Art, I read news about movies." Then he is responsible for reviewing and stir in the network to find feeds, news, images and videos that are similar to our tastes.

Popego becomes a personal assistant, who tries to understand, how we are, what we like, what does not and juggling for King, sorry, I meant for the surfer.

What the hell is RSS, Atom, RSS, and other herbs?

3 comments August 4th, 2008 3 comments

In all (or most) of blogs / sites 2.0, as we will see icons on the left, and Wednesday mean?

RSS is a "protocol" communication standard for distribution of content among different Web services using XML, the highest utilization is where you produce / publish content periodically, in other words, suck it pabote content of any site (permitted).

And you do with that content "sucked"?

de contenido (muchas veces mal llamado: “sindicación”). There are two formats RSS or ATOM (there are other and even more versions of the same) for the dissemination of content (often wrongly called "syndication").

RSS: Really Simple Syndication, is a simple format.
ATOM: Same as above but with more technical information and standardization.
FEED: List of items of a RSS / ATOM.
Source: The square that is in May : P

Two major applications have this technology (obviously there are other more): Continue reading "What the hell is RSS, Atom, RSS, and other herbs? '"

What the hell is Twitter?

twitter

Twitter is a system of microblogging (between us a concise and quick blog about everything). Basically consists of writing you're doing, with a limit of 140 characters, or whatever ... the goal is not to explain much, but to the point. The term microblogging (also known as nanoblogging) involves sending only text, but this obviously includes links, which can be shortened by some sites that deal with that as is the case with tinyurl that basically will generate an alias for a very useful web address shortened by limited number of characters imposed on us twitter .
