These include Google’s ubiquitous services like Docs, Calendar, Mail, News, Maps as well as Picasa and Google Wave (now available to anyone). The first batch of Web apps are free Google products and therefore, presumably, free of charge. Google unveiled a few preliminary apps at the Google I/O developer conference. For instance, there’s a question about whether or not the Chrome OS and/or Web app store will support Silverlight (commenters say “slim chance”). Developers can start building their products using the developer’s guide and also visit the Google Group for Chromium Apps to inquire about what technologies will work with Chrome apps. The Washington Post reports that it’ll appear “before Chrome OS ships.”Īt first, Chrome Web Store will only serve the 70 million users of Google Chrome, though the company is looking at branching out to other browsers in the future. The grand opening of the Chrome Web Store will happen “later this year,” according to the announcement. So what will the Chrome Web Store be like? What are its offerings? How is it powered? Will free Web content be put in a walled garden, re-packaged, and sold to us as Chrome Web Store apps for $4 a pop? The Chrome Web Store is Google’s forthcoming one-stop shop for Web-based apps, both free and paid.
Google gave a sneak peek of its Chrome Web Store this week at the Google I/O conference, offering up clues to where the Internet behemoth is headed when it comes to its Chrome OS operating system and its Chrome browser.
