When Google released their Chrome web browser, it took the world by surprise but seemed like the logical next step for the mega company. Well, it looks like they are expanding past a web browser and even past their mobile Android OS with the introduction of Google Chrome OS.

This will be a full fledged open source operating system built from the ground up. Its focus will be on speed, security and simplicity much like the Google Chrome web browser and Android OS.

Google says that they are working on making netbooks running Google Chrome OS for availability sometime in 2010. Your move Apple and Microsoft.
