"Google Chrome Converts User Scripts into Extensions
A recent Chromium build added a feature that converts user scripts into extensions. Until now, Google's browser didn't provide an interface for adding and managing user scripts, so you had to manually copy the scripts to a folder.

"Lots of users still complain that Chrome does not support Greasemonkey user scripts. Even though we have had the infrastructure in place to handle user scripts for some time now, it has never been clear how the feature would relate to full extensions, and so it has remained incomplete," explains Aaron Boodman, a Google Chrome developer who created the Greasemonkey extension.

Now you can visit userscripts.org and any other site that links to Greasemonkey scripts and other flavors of user scripts, click on the link to a *.user.js file and install it in one click."

Ok so what exactly Google Wave is can be confusing, because there are three parts: the protocol, the server, and the client. A lot of people are really going to miss the boat here if they don't keep the distinction between the three in mind, because I see a lot of people focusing on the wrong parts.

Evolution of Google File System
August 08, 2009 07:26:40 EDT
There is an interesting interview about the evolution of the Google File System in ACM Queue.  I think it is readable by anybody, not just ACM members.

One of the morals of this story is that, even if you are building what you think will be the world's biggest, you still will make design decisions that you know are not scalable because you know how to implement them.  It is better to get something running right away and start using it.  Of course, they also ran into scalability problems that they did not expect.  So, some of the evolution of GFS was planned, and some was unplanned.

From early in their company's history, Google's founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, wanted to develop a computer operating system and browser.

They believed it would help make personal computing less expensive, because Google would give away the software free of charge. They wanted to shrug off 20 years of accumulated software history (what the information technology industry calls the "legacy") by building an OS and browser from scratch. Finally, they hoped the combined technology would be an alternative to Microsoft Windows and Internet Explorer, providing a new platform for developers to write Web applications and unleashing the creativity of programmers for the benefit of the masses.

Gmail's IMAP support roll-out this week had nerds all atwitter about the possibility of synchronized email access across devices, computers, and clients. IMAP is far superior to regular old POP for fetching your messages and maintaining your folder list whether you're on your iPhone, office or home computer. If IMAP's got you curious but you're not sure what desktop application to use with Gmail, consider the extensible, fast, cross-platform and free Mozilla Thunderbird, our beloved Firefox's little sibling. Here's how to get the full Gmail experience in Thunderbird with IMAP.

Bill Weihl, Google's green-energy czar, has been worrying about the environment for much of his IT career, including 10 years teaching computer science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and five more as a research scientist at the famed DEC Systems Research Center in Palo Alto, Calif. In 2004, he left Akamai, a content-delivery company where he was chief technology officer, to figure out how he could use his skills to help fight climate change.

Google's Chrome OS isn't the first operating system to challenge Microsoft Windows' commanding lead. But it's got an advantage that other rivals such as Linux lacked: the Web.
Any new operating system must attract the developers who produce the applications to make it useful. The trouble Windows challengers have had is matching the wide spectrum of software available for Windows already

Last Friday afternoon (was it really only a week ago?) about 200 people made their way to the Googleplex in Mountain View for the fourth SciFoo. There are many people who got their blog posts out well before me so I will focus on the sessions which don’t seem to have been heavily discussed and try to draw a few themes out.

But in this case, MySpace isn’t that concerned with offline access (they haven’t turned the feature on yet). Instead, they are leveraging the framework to make their messaging service, which previously didn’t allow searching, sorting or any other basic organization techniques, into a much more useful feature.

This is an interesting observation suggesting tying IE to the OS was a fatal mistake, or at the very least, one that will cost them them with regards to playing nimbly in an OS-less world.
