Thanksgiving. My favorite holiday, ever.

Seriously.

Family gets together and fellowships together and gives thanks to God. It’s a beautiful thing. During these times, family tends to utilize technology as well. Often I bring my laptops and let my siblings, nieces, and nephews use them. I notice they primarily use the web browser to check their email, facebook, myspace or whatever. Yesterday, I saw an article about a USB bootable version of Chrome OS and immediately I thought: “Wow, this could be handy on Thanksgiving”.

Instead of worrying about where people are surfing, if there’s any malware or spyware being downloaded, you can let them use your computer with peace of mind with Chrome OS. The premise is simple:

1. Install Chrome OS on USB
2. Plug USB drive into laptop/computer and boot
3. Smile at your worry free, web browser only kiosk

It’s a self-contained image with one purpose: web surfing. If you fit this category, I recommend you download and install the Chrome OS USB image and give it a try. I understand Chrome OS has glitches here and there, but I think this is something worth trying. (translation: It may not work perfectly on your machine)

As a side note, I’m considering creating a dummy google account just for this purpose. Let me know your thoughts.
