When Google has unveiled its next operating system OS Chromium in November 2009, opinions were mixed. Indeed, the latter revolves around the Google browser Chrome has been specially designed to run web applications.
However, details have just been revealed on a new feature called Chromoting. Thus the official discussion group Chromium Kacmarcík Gary, an engineer at Google, said : "With this new feature Chrome OS is not only a platform to run web applications, it is also possible to access for PC software directly through the browser.
If no details have been published on the operation mode Chromoting, the user should be able to remotely access a computer connected to the Internet and use a local application. This feature, if it is well implemented in Chrome OS, should satisfy users requiring timely creating or editing a file on a terminal extra.

Nokia N9 MeeGo slider leaks
The Nokia N9, a slider that seems to take the N8 to the next level with the addition of a QWERTY keyboard.
There’s a leaked video on the Web that apparently shows an early version of the Nokia N9. And although we can’t confirm that this is indeed the real N9, Eldar Murtazin of Mobile-review says it is – or at least it’s a handset that “looks like the real one”. The production quality of the promo is certainly up to snuff and the industrial design of the slider itself features just enough N8 to make the whole thing seem very plausible.
The keys on the QWERTY keyboard look weird and too flat, but, as I said, this is likely an early rendering of the device.

A filtering is also possible sports (football, rugby, tennis, golf, cycling and Formula 1). As regards the World Cup, there will obviously rankings of different groups, the results of all matches and a "Direct" displaying the scores of matches in progress and comments in real time (at the time of write these lines, the matches have not started, so difficult to know if this section will be correctly informed). The application is available for iPhone, iPod Touch, and Android iPad. The mobile versions are fairly close to each other and respect the graphic conventions of each OS. IPad version naturally has a much more comfortable with displaying a panel layout rather successful. Note that a special World Cup declination of the iPhone application is also available.
