IT Giant Goes Freakingly Ambitious

I read about the new Google browser today. They're revamping how traditional browsers work. I linked it up with a IT theory many years ago: There wouldn't be a need for fast computers anymore with the increasing speed of the internet. All complicated processes could be sent to a supercomputer through the internet, let it render all processes and send it back to the user. All people will just need a normal computer with superspeed internet connections. My cousin who is an IT expert says it will only stay as a concept as the internet and the browser has it's limitations, and we will have to wait until an Open Source software comes up with something extraordinary.

And here is Google Chrome! The IT gladiator who is daring enough to go through where others dare not. Pull down every wall and rebuild it all over again. I thoroughly respect innovation and daring people. Kudos to you Google!

One can only imagine how far this will bring Google to. If the concept that I spoke of realizes in this Chrome project, all we need is a fast internet connection. There will be no need for high-tech hardware technology. We're all lease it from Google or other vendors. What Google has done is that he is using internet software to challenge the market share of hardware giants like Intel, Texas Intruments, computer giants, etc.

Absolutely brilliant!
