Google To Compete On OS – Chrome OS

Google Chrome

Google appears to be taking on Microsoft in many ways these days. Email, applications such as Google Apps for business, the Android operating system for mobile phones, and now they are close to launching their own operating system for computers under the Google Chrome name.

Google Chrome will be primarily aimed at netbooks (small portable computers) initially and will provide a fast, secure, and better way to access Web-based applications. This OS will eventually be set up to run a whole range of computers from laptops to desk tops.

This is a direct launch against Windows 7 which is Microsoft’s response to the whole Vista situation which has not gone well for MS. MS is hoping to launch Windows 7 in the fall.

From the official blog post announcing Google Chrome OS:

We hear a lot from our users and their message is clear — computers need to get better. People want to get to their email instantly, without wasting time waiting for their computers to boot and browsers to start up. They want their computers to always run as fast as when they first bought them. They want their data to be accessible to them wherever they are and not have to worry about losing their computer or forgetting to back up files. Even more importantly, they don’t want to spend hours configuring their computers to work with every new piece of hardware, or have to worry about constant software updates. And any time our users have a better computing experience, Google benefits as well by having happier users who are more likely to spend time on the Internet.

Speed, simplicity and security are the key aspects of Google Chrome OS. We’re designing the OS to be fast and lightweight, to start up and get you onto the web in a few seconds. The user interface is minimal to stay out of your way, and most of the user experience takes place on the web. And as we did for the Google Chrome browser, we are going back to the basics and completely redesigning the underlying security architecture of the OS so that users don’t have to deal with viruses, malware and security updates. It should just work.

Google Chrome OS will run on both x86 as well as ARM chips and we are working with multiple OEMs to bring a number of netbooks to market next year. The software architecture is simple — Google Chrome running within a new windowing system on top of a Linux kernel. For application developers, the web is the platform. All web-based applications will automatically work and new applications can be written using your favorite web technologies. And of course, these apps will run not only on Google Chrome OS, but on any standards-based browser on Windows, Mac and Linux thereby giving developers the largest user base of any platform.

Build Up Your Blogs and Watch Your Adsense Cash Grow

The best thing about blogging is that there are no rules. You can write about anything you want.
A self-publisher’s dream! There are some things you can do though to maximize your Google Adsense
profits. Narrow your subject. Don’t just write about shopping. Write about shopping for antique
dresser drawer pulls. Write every day. Have a blog at more than one site. If you develop a
readership, you’re more likely to increase your profits.

Write about something you know or want to know or at the very least care about. If you try to write
a great blog based on a “hot keyword” yet it’s something you could care less about, you’ll likely
not stay with it long. Experiment and see what works for you. You can write based on your own
opinion or something factual. You can review a product or service or a movie. Read other people’s
blogs and notice how many reads they’re getting. Above all, have fun. After all, it’s free and if
you’re persistent you’ll see your Google Adsense dollars adding up.

Choosing The Right Free Blogging Tools

There are many free blogging tools on the market, but loading up your blog with all of the free
accessories that you can find isn’t necessarily a good idea. While it may be tempting to add a
visitor counter, a flashy background, an exciting new font, and a cluster of quirky animated gifs
to your blog, this kind of plan can easily backfire. The key to getting the most from free blog
tools is being selective.

It is a great idea to learn about all of the kinds of free blogging tools that are available so
that you can make an informed decision about what to add to your blog, but try to remember that
just because you can have something doesn’t mean that you need it. Practice restraint and only
choose the options that you think will really be useful. If you can find out how many visitors are
reading your blog by checking your traffic statistics, a visitor counter is likely to add
unnecessary clutter to your page. If your blog is text-based, a flashy background can be more of a
distraction than an benefit. Be realistic about assessing what kinds of blog accessories will help
you realize your vision and improve your site. Remember that even a blog tool that doesn’t cost you
any cash may not be an asset in the long run.

Top Paying Keywords For Your Blog

In people’s search for higher incomes from placement of Google AdSense ads on their blogs a lot of AdSense publishers are looking to find those keywords that really bring the best income possible. The higher an advertiser pays for a keyword, they more the advertiser receives when they click on a link.

But how can you find such words for your blog? Well, the answer to that question depends a little on who you are and what you’re prepared to do to get those keywords. But the general good news is that you can indeed find such words if you need them.

Of course, if you can afford such a solution, one of the best ways of getting your hands on those words would be to pay for them. There are specialized companies that do business by finding people good keywords, not only for the purpose of more AdSense revenue but for search engine optimization as well.

Such a service can be found on “Top Paying Keywords” http://www.toppayingkeywords.com/?hop=moneymkr and this is a no-brainer to getting relevant content on your site and increasing your revenue by a whole bunch quickly.

Of course, if such a solution does not work for you, you can ultimately resort to a method of personal investigation. That means you try out keywords by yourself and see which ones work better or worse for yourself.

While you might also be doing this for the first method (paying someone else to get the keywords) it would probably be better then this because you’d at least be narrowing down search to certain items.

While you’re trying this make sure to keep using AdSense’s ‘channels’ feature along the way as it can be a very good way of letting you know which sections of your site are generating income and which aren’t.

Of course, you can also yield a great amount of help from AdSense’s arch enemy Overture. Overture gives you the possibility of entering keywords and finding out not only how much advertisers are paying to get them on your page, but how much people are clicking on the words as well. This service can be found at: http://www.pixelfast.com/overture/

You can also try out a tool called Word Tracker http://jeremyburns.com/a/wordtracker. What this tool can do is tell you how many sites are already using the same keywords. Learn from this lesson and don’t try to use the words that a lot of people are already using.

Also, a great aid may very well be found in Google itself. Search Google for any keywords you may wish to include in your pages and look at the results. The results on the left will probably be your competitors (and if they have Google AdSense ads on their page you can bet then are) while the links on the right display ads relevant to your search.

If your search doesn’t yield any AdSense results then you might want to reconsider including those keywords in your site.

Make sure you don’t use any dead words on your blog (words that don’t get any links on AdSense other then public ads). That is probably the most important thing you should be doing when considering keywords to chase in your blooging for dollars campaign.

Of course these are only a few methods of getting out of the dead zone and starting to make serious money with AdSense. If you’ve seen a lot of people with “not so hot” websites generating a lot of AdSense revenue, using these tips can get you right behind them (or in front if you’re really smart) very fast. Although this is the case it is also very important to remember that having the highest paying words does not mean that you make the most money. You have to also consider how many times the advert is clicked on.
