Notes from a wireframe world

Back in on the 8^th of July this year, just after announced they would be moving into the OS market there was a lot of discussion as to what the new OS would look like, and do at that point, I made a prediction, I said Chrome OS would be just a web browser bolted on top of a book sequence and a HAL, and everything else (the apps) would just exist on the web.

I was right.

Yesterday at Google HQ the first public demo of the new OS happened and guess Google said.

SP: Currently we’re only working with web apps. The iPhone was a bit different because THEY made their own native apps. We’re not doing that, we’re doing all web apps for Chrome OS. Netbooks are a better size for web apps.

Yes that’s right NO! non web applications on the new Google net books the screens shot drum the point home even more.

Yes that’s right, it’s just a webbrowser.
