Using the "Easy" Method, I ran the script twice and BAM, Ubuntu dual boot.It's nothing to brag about, I love having crossover installed and the fact that I have a FILE BROWSER ;DThe Bad:The function (top) keys don't work, along with the search button and right clicking (which I only use two finger tap anyway - so no effect on me). Since there is no delete key, that obviously doesnt work and neither does Grub. I wish I could dual boot without code/flipping the switch. Last of my negative rants, the 3G doesn't work.The Good, The Great And The Awesome:But...

Now, this guide is for making temporary applications available to the public while the website you are trying to make an app for, makes one themselves.Since I got tired of waiting for Gizmodo to post an app of their own, I made a Gizmodo Chrome App as an example.To start, download my base app here: http://www.mediafire.com/?dnucf166lhf6m07This will set you up with the correct layout and setup.Once you open the manifest.json file, you will see this:{"name": "ENTER THE APP NAME HERE","description": "ENTER A QUICK DESCRIPTION OF THE APP...

On the Google Group, one ninja wrote:"Developer channel (a.k.a. "dev channel")Currently, by default, your Chrome notebook is on our beta channel, and is regularly updated with our beta version releases. Compared to the beta channel, the developer channel gets updated with versions of Chrome OS that may contain new features still being built, some of which may not always work as expected yet. Folks on the developer channel may also at times experience more instability (such as crashes). To find out about how to switch between the two channels,...

So i'm sure you've heard those annoying HD radio ads lately... No commercials eh?We shouldn't have commercials in general.How can you get around that? Listen to high school radio stations. They take advantage of other stations by making fun of them.A great example is one station, which says in between songs: "Broadcasting from a small hill on top of a football field, this is ____" and a little boy says "What kind of station is this?". In reply,...

Next I tried uploading photos from an SD cardThe slideshow would not show a single picture from my camera and instead, it showed a black screen.Other then that, I have not seen any other glitches. I have also found a case that fits the...

Then click "Edit my Membership" to change settings.I'm...

My first notices, Google's sarcasm and humor in every sheet of paper they include.Click the images to see a better view and to read this well thought safety instructions. Hopefully though, you'll be lucky enough to read it in person.Next off, I enjoyed reading through the beginner's guide to a CR48. The tech sarcasm continued in the "There is no CAPS lock button" page.Moving on from there, it was quick to find the few annoyances of the...

Quote from the official Google Blog:"As we see it, this experiment confirms our suspicion that Bing is using some combination of:Internet Explorer 8, which can send data to Microsoft via its Suggested Sites featurethe Bing Toolbar, which can send data via Microsoft’s Customer Experience Improvement Program"Now think about it. How could Internet Explorer be so slow unless it is sending tons of information back to Microsoft to add as search results to Bing. My suggestion: Chr...

Most people would never think to clean theirs.Here are some pictures to gross you out.Before: Click the image for a better view. After:*Note: I take no...
You know why? Because Bing is stealing Google's search results and denying it! If Bing was shut down, NO ONE would care other then the Microsoft employees who created it. NO ONE would go: "where's bing?" with a frown on their face. That's because Bing search is an emulated Google! And those would-be sad people would go right to google.com.Face it Microsoft, GIVE UP. Not just on Bing, eventually, Chrome OS will replace computers in workplaces, Microsoft...
