Yay, you’re back :) Liking the new look. I’ve been playing with Chrome too, but I think I’m still too sentimental about Firefox – I converted so many IE users to Firefox myself :P

Let’s see if I warm up to Chrome more in the coming days…but like you said, it’s hardly meant to be a browser anyway, this is definitely Google’s window to easier use of Google apps, which I don’t use very much of, yet.

Interesting point about the browser synchronizing local and web storage/applications. People would certainly want their apps and data available even offline, but they wouldn’t care which processor and which disk they’re using.

Put this in perspective of what other online applications Google provides – calendar/organizer, spreadsheets, document storage etc. Does Chrome then become something between a thin and a thick client, aimed at augmenting Google Cloud with some amount of local caching? Don’t know how exactly, but at least a step towards that…

You would only need to have your music and games on your PC, and with the way Google is craving for all your data, some time down the line not even that.
