Google I/O 2011, Day 2

I'm catching up on my Google I/O news for today.  Here's what I found to be interesting:

• Google demoed Chrome getting 25 fps on the Mozilla WebGL fish tank with 10,000 fish. This is cool simply because it means really impressive games will soon be available in a web browser. Like...
• A WebGL version of Angry Birds now available for free in the Chrome app store.  Here's a little hack to unlock the levels.
• The biggest new will probably turn out the to be Chromebook.  

Chromebooks are essentially netbooks that run the new Chrome operating system, a browser base environment.  This computer is meant to be run online at all times.  Google is working on a version of Google Docs that will work while not on the Internet.  This kind of computer should meet the needs of many people.  The cheapest model is around $350.

Note that as of today, Microsoft has 89% desktop market share. Check back in a couple years, we're in for a big change.
