google-based pc
January 04, 2006
Slashdot is rumor-mongering about a google pc. I can't be bothered to take the time off my busy schedule to actually research what I'm about to speculate about, but here goes: (PX6)
If I were going to build a cheap google pc, I'd position it for high speed networked folk only, give it a minimal os with very little on disk except for a local cache of various networked stuff. Applications are already out there or in progress (Gmail, reader, etc). The clincher is that data and settings go in google base. Why not? The network finally is the computer. They've got an identity system already. (PX7)
I figure my atom store will be in google-base soon. And if my busy schedule allowed, my purple numbered nodes or rubeads would be easy to do. oids looks a lot like nids. (PX8)
