Google Chrome is 'cloud operating system'
If Google's "Chrome" strategy succeeds, Microsoft Office will no longer be needed and Windows' dominant position will disappear.
You think "Chrome" is just a browser, you're ignoring a big point.
Chrome will undoubtedly feature as a browser, so users will have another icon of choice for the browser collection along with IE, Firefox and Safari. It will also certainly include some new buzzing features that force Microsoft and Mozilla to immediately retool what they have. But that's what is on the sidelines.
Within the next two years, you will not download Google 'browser'. You will download ' Google Software ' (or, rather, you will click on a series of pre-installed Google icons). In particular, you will work within a Google software environment with a Windows-like operating model, including:
- Browser
- Google Gears (offline and online applications, including email, messages, chat .)
- Search Google desktop search
- Google Earth
- Open source development platform
.
The software will continue to be integrated and it will make Google's online applications (and those of other developers), richer, but easier to use, especially if / when you offline (offline).
It will have a Google search window (unlike Microsoft, Google will not have trouble when the default search window). It will be able to run directly on any device without running Windows. Unlike Windows, it will be free. And it will be preinstalled - like Windows - because people really bother having to download certain applications.
So what will this software be? See Google description below:
' All of us at Google have spent a lot of time working inside a browser. We search, chat, email and collaborate in a browser. And in our free time, we shop, read news, pay, and keep in touch with friends - all using a browser. Since we spend so much time online, we have begun to seriously think about the type of browser that can exist if we start from scratch and build on the best elements here. We have realized that the web has evolved from mostly simple text pages to rich, complex interactive applications and that we need to rethink the browser completely. What we really need is not just a browser but a modern platform for web pages and applications. And that's what we build . '
Is this an arrow targeting Microsoft? You should believe it. If Google does this strategy well, the 'majority' advantage of Microsoft Office will eventually disappear and the Windows operating system will become unnecessary.
This is not good news for Microsoft.
