Chrome OS

I have downloaded Chrome OS, and I tried it. I think it is good OS, light, and suitable for Notebook users. The OS is Linux based on SUSE Linux (as I think), also uses OpenOffice but SUSE release (not Oracle). It is mainly focusing on using Online services offered by Google like google docs, so the main interface used is Chrome browser, not Explorer.exe in Windows.

Really I like the idea, but still for windows users it's hard to make them change, where most windows users are using local storage and services, and they didn't have the Cloud concept. However Google is the only one who has the power to convince users to change.

For me as Fedora user, I think there is no big difference but services and features offered by fedora for me as developer are higher.

Let us see how Google community will improve Chrome OS.

Oracle BPM Suite 11g: New Book

Packt has asked me to review this book, I have just downloaded it and I will start reading it tomorrow. However one of friends told me that the book is good and it covers SOA too.

It worth to mention that BPM is an important part of Middleware which facilitates building of business processes by business users, and those processes are SOA based. I didn't use it yet, after reviewing the book I will come with an example of how to use BPM and UCM together.

I wish Packt will change their books' titles to "Hands On" :D which became very helpful to start with Oracle Middleware solutions in short time.
