Is it running on google's server. The name "Web Centered OS" seems to
be running in google's server and the users will get an interface. If
it is running on google's server then it doesn't respect your freedom,
even if it is free or not. Because you are not in control of your

If google publish the software, I have the freedom to choose whether to use the
one you run on your server or to run on my server.

Yes. Ofcourse. But you are in control of your computing only if you
have your own licensed copy of the OS and run it on your computer.
Atleast your server. Not myserver or ILUG's server or any other
machine. Just curiosity, why any people what to do this? Nowadays,
it's not haard to get your own co

Yes. Many people tell that it is very good idea. But no matter if it
is free or not, you are not in control of your computing. I think
google is the No:1 in providing these kind of nasty services. I heard
that google docs do the same. But this OS is new to me. Thank you for
letting me know about it
Please read

It seems like a lightweight linux OS which runs Google's window manager.
This window manager will be (like) a web browser. I guess that there will be
a
GUI to configure network.
Smells like geekbox's idea; Mediap

friends,
The idea of a netbook whose OS has to be constantly online is probably

Especially in a place where they define broadband with 256kbps and stop
there.
But as mentioned the offline versions of google docs etc would be there

Also are you sure that the "Access Point Name" is
gprssouth.cellone.in. I can see there is two zone in south soth a and
b. The bsnlsouth is the access point in south a, I think so.

For a simple reason, its nice to have your own OS with you wherever you're
going. (At least where there is internet)
And I think this is can be attributed as a triumph for FOSS that such an
idea is coming to realization. I don't think Google would have even thought
of something like this if a free

You don't value your freedom. That's the reason you are thinking about
silly conveniences like chrome.

That's not a problem. google doesn't take control of my computing if I
use their email service. The question is Why we have to use an OS and
other softwares, which are provided by google and give up our freedom?
The same exist in our computer or laptop, which grant us freedom. Why

gmail is good. But it has a nasty spy feature too. I would like to
share it with you. It is the chat feature in gmail window. When ever I
log in to gmail, it informs every one online saying "Jos Collin has
logged in now". When ever I'm not working, it informs everybody saying
"Jos Collin is away".
