Chrome to the public...

If you guys follow me on Twitter I went on a slight rant earlier today. Im gonna reiterate some of the things I sadly don't have a printer at home, and I was forced to run to the library to print some important documents I needed.

FIRST off...the computers at this specific branch are still on sad XP...many other branches in the city run windows 7, or at least vista. Now with these machines on the older but yet still very widely supported and stable XP, there are still some issues. By it being a public computer the installation choices are locked out, so sadly installation of 3rd party software is impossible. I couldn't even plug-n-play my evo 3d as external memory. Which truly hurt my feelings. Second, by the machines being older models, pure speed, is not a quote you use for these computers. 3rd by it being on a public network, so many individuals are on it, now I don't know how many may have been on it at once, but sometimes it lagged.

This is where I thought of an idea, public chrome Os...brought to you by Google. Chrome Os so far has been a bust, it doesn't have the possibility to be a full Os that you rely on at home. But? Place it in a public place...integrate public logins, into the cloud. Where data, documents, and anything else you desire into it. The chrome store would boom thanks to this, whenever you log in? Your chrome apps automatically become available via stream. I can see this being amazing and of great use to school students also...too bad this is just an idea I thought of and will never come to light.

I just was thinking, ease of use, speed. Logging in would be simple and everything would be right where you need it, its just as chrome browser is now, so fluid and provides such ease. And the chrome store is so amazing. I mean...maybe someone in the r&d department at Google will see this...that's so farfetched though. So for now I just have this as an idea....an idea of consumer looking to make my peers lives easier.
