If you like living your digital life in the browser, then the Chrome OS could be exactly what you’re looking for. It’s fast, geared for an Internet teather yet able to function on its own, and it’s a bold step into the future of how operating systems work. The Chrome OS will be available to the public on June 15 (as I type this).

Chromium OS is an open-source project that aims to build an operating system that provides a fast, simple, and more secure computing experience for people who spend most of their time on the web. Here you can review the project’s design docs, obtain the source code, and contribute. To learn more about the project goals, read the announcement blog post.

To start using it you need to get yourself a Chromebook. Chromebooks boot in 8 seconds and resume instantly. Your favorite websites load quickly and run smoothly, with full support for the latest web standards and AdobeÂ® FlashÂ®. In fact, Chromebooks are designed to get faster over time as updates are released.

For even more info catch up on Wikipedia. And, if you buy one please let us know what you think in the comments below.

Google announced yesterday that with their 15th release they’re taking off the “beta” label! So after just 100 days of beta testing you can now download the first official release.

If you’re wondering whether or not Chrome is the right browser for you then take a look at the video’s showing off the features and possibilities. I’m sticking with FF for now but I’d love to hear what you all think…

Anyway – happy surfing! A little competition has never been a bad thing
