For this holidays Google have a present for us, Guess What!!! Its the long awaited Google Chrome Browser for MAC and Linux, even with hell lot of extensions.
Google Chrome for Mac (Beta)
Here Google boasts about the speed of Chrome. The blog post says “there’s hardly even time for the icon in the dock to bounce!”. Google have worked a lot for the clean and simple design with subtle animations and effects to create a snappy and satisfying browsing experience on OS X. This release of Chrome for Mac repeatedly postponed.
But still there is bad news for MAC users. According to Google Blog post about this release, the extensions “aren’t quite beta-quality on Mac yet”.
See the video for MAC Google Chrome Here.

Here Google ensures a High performance browser which can integration with native GTK themes very well. Also the updates are managed by the standard system package manager.
As per google wave blog, the top most feature request is more invitations. Everyone s eager to try it out. So now google is doing something about it. More and more people are getting invited to google wave.
Google says,
We’ve been working to increase the capacity of our preview setup and have sent invitations to everyone who requested an invite through our online form. If you’d like to request an invitation, you can still sign up here.
Also more invitations are added to the existing users, so that they too can invite their friends. Google wave here says something about the number 1 Million, and that means atleast for me, it is going to reach 1 Million users for Wave. The headline of th blog post is “A million stamps licked … and counting”. So it is going to reach 1 Million.
Also if any one you need Google wave invites, Contact Me. I can give you as of now..
Now that google has launched the DNS services of their own, there are rumors that leads to the conclusions, Google plans to run their own Internet.
TheRegister Reported,
“Google is even building its very own physical internet. We can safely say the company is building its own servers, its own Ethernet switches, its own underwater comms cables, its own worldwide collection of brick and mortar data centers, its own truck-em-anywhere-you-want-em mobile data centers, and perhaps even its own Data Center Navy.
This morning, at the Supernova tech pow-wow in downtown San Francisco, Googler Craig Walker offhandedly referred to this as “the Google network.”
In a recent presentation, Google said it is intent on expanding this infrastructure between one million and 10 million servers, encompassing 10 trillion (1013) directories and a quintillion (1018) bytes of storage. All this would be spread across “100s to 1000s” of locations around the world.”
