For Beginners - On Chromium Of Google

There is a lot to write , and I dont know how :). The first thing I like you to know is , this article is for a beginner.

Chromium project is the backbone of producing the products Chrome OS and Chrome Browser. Chrominum is an open source project. This project produces the Chromium browser also. Google takes a snap or image of the latest codes from this project, give some security checks and also add a Google logo to produce the Google Browser. So in short the fully open source browser from the Chromium project is called Chromium Browser and partially open source one is Google Chrome Browser.

The licensing of Chromium Browser is BSD which means the browser is fully open. The licensing of Google Chrome Browser is MIT license, LGPL licence , Ms-PL and MPL/GPL/LGPL trilicense.

But what ever be the difference between licence, for an average user there is no much difference between the two browsers.

Now there is an upgrade for the JavaScript Engine for the two browsers by the project. This makes both the browsers a lot faster. The special codes converts the JavaScript to native codes of the processor. This makes things done a lot faster. The cleaver factor that they have added now is, the frequent codes used are optimized. This makes they say a 12 percent improvement in performance. For those who like to get more, there is a good article about this in the chromium blog.

Now when it comes to Chrome OS , the first thing that you may ask is – What is the OS??

Well, that is the linux. Really inteigent linux OS which rebuild itself when someone boots.

Next question of you would be , How can I install it??

This OS is what you call a Cloud OS. The sad news is , you cannot download it .

But you always have the option to compile from the source and use. The instruction for doing this is long and hectice. But if you are interested, you may use this link.

The article on wikipedia about Chrome OS is really magnificant so for persons who like to read get more insite about this amazing google product, I suggest to read wikipedia first and then go throught the link on Chrominum site.
