Google has worked on Chrome OS since last year. When Google first launched Google Chrome Browser – it was seen as an extension of an OS in the making. The Chrome OS was envisioned as an Operating System (OS) to fill the gap between a full-fledged OS’s on our regular computers and the Mobile OS on the smartphones, we see today.

Google has now launched the Chrome OS in form of the Chrome Notebook and a lot of people are keen to see it in action and know what features it offers. So lets take a look at a few main features of Chrome OS.
