What's next, Google?

After Michael Jackson death, the media tools all over the world were busy, during the last 48 hours, emphasizing Google’s big move of announcing the Chrome OS.

According to Google; Chrome OS, which will run on an open source license, was a “natural extension” of its Chrome browser. The news comes just months before Microsoft launches the latest version of its operating system, called Windows 7.

Putting the core of the announcement aside, we though about what’s going to happen exactly with Eric Schmidt after taking the decision of entering the competition of the Operating Systems market. Shmedit is the chairman of Google, he is a member of the board of directors of Apple and he was a member of President Obama’s transition advisory board.

For a long time, Google and Apple were in very good terms and worked together to develop, mainly, the iPhone which has a lot of Google services. A while after Google announced the new operating system for the mobile phones (Android) which puts both companies in the position of direct competitors to each other. That sounded weird in a way or another while Schmidt is a key person in the management of both companies.

But what makes the more weird now is the decision that Schmidt has taken when Google introduced Chrome OS, because it basically moves the competition between Apple and Google to another level as both firms provide operating systems.

Probably sometime soon we will see the Chairman of Google announcing his farewell as a member of the Board of Directors of Apple.
