So I managed to get Chromium OS on a virtual machine running. Now I am playing around a little bit. I will document my progress here.
First thing, you need to get the virtual console. Do this by clicking CTRL + ALT + T. More commands are on this shortcut list.
Now you have a functional terminal/console.

According to a comment by Ian Fettec, Product Manager for Google Chrome, they are not planing to release Google Gears for Apple’s Snow Leopard/Safari. The reason for this is the fact, that developers should make use of HTML 5’s new features, that prior where only available in Gears.
To bad because many sites are already using Gears (Google Docs, Gmail, RememberTheMilk, Zoho and more).
We are not supporting gears on Snow Leopard and later versions of Mac OS X.
Relying on HTML5 database and appcache going forward is a good approach as a
replacement for Gears on these platforms.

New Moon
The next New Moon is tomorrow, November 16th. For a schedule of the moon cycles for the the rest of 2009, see the following website:http://www.new-age.co.uk/moon-dates.htm
^I really hope the person who wrote this is not serious.
^^ he isn’t haha
Currently, “New Moon” is a trending topic on Twitter. And thanks to Brizzly’s open explanation system, we all know what it means. But in this case, we don’t 
. The trending topic is less about the actual new moon and more about the new Twilight Movie “The Twilight Sage: New Moon” which opens in theaters on November 20st in Northern America.
Just wanted to note, that it is funny .
Trailers can be found on the Apple Trailers website.

A nicely edited photography can make me “ahh”. A nicely edited video makes me “uhhh”. And a tilt shift faked video is just unbelievable. Do not trust me? Well, check out the video below to see for yourself. There must be so much time, knowledge and patience. Simply breathtaking.
