Google Experimenting With Browser Login For Chrome OS



Google has made a change to Chrome OS to move the user login from the machine to the browser. Our guess is Google is, or will eventually use, Google Friend Connect to facilitate login.

The feature was first mentioned on October 13: "Using Chrome as our login manager has a number of potential benefits. Explore these tradeoffs and decide what to do about the login manager." The code was checked in on December 14: "An early version of this change is finally in. It's not ready for daily use yet, and we haven't gotten the network picker on there or anything yet, but at least we've got a baseline in there. I'm filing issues for the follow-on work."

There are lots of potential benefits to having users log into machines via the browser. In particular it makes syncing easier and furthers the notion that you can log into any Chrome OS machine and have exactly the same experience as you would on any other machine. The fact that users can't download any software to Chrome OS computers furthers this experience.

But it's also clearly interesting from an identity standpoint. Facebook and Twitter are both making strong plays as the defacto online identity for hundreds of millions of Internet users. Facebook Connect in particular is becoming a very popular way for third party sites to easily add identity and login features to apps (it's what we use on our own CrunchBase).

But people using Chrome OS devices will be logging into the Internet first and foremost with a Google account, or via Friend Connect (which currently allows signin via Google, Twitter, Yahoo, AIM, Netlog, OpenID, etc.). By centralizing authentication once, Google can then use the same Friend Connect credentials to automatically login to sites that support it.

If Chrome OS becomes popular, it will be a very powerful weapon for Google to compete with Facebook Connect.

Google eyeing up Trulia
:

Google have been eyeing yet another company for a possible takeover, Trulia.Trulia are a real estate search engine and they are valued at around $200 million. Google have apparently a new found interest in the real estate search market, a point verified recently by CNET and it looks as if a takeover could be imminent.

Continues.....

For those who don't know, Trulia are a San Francisco based company and their software allows people to search for information about homes for sale in a specific ZIP code and even cities nationwide ... the fact that Trulia is also tied into Google Maps is a bonus point. Trulia has raised over $30 million in the last four years and investors include Silicon Valley venture firms Sequoia Capital and Accel Partners.

Trulia are not without competitors however and Zillow, who are located in Seattle are actually the bigger of the two but Google would need to fork out considerably more for a possible takeover. On another note Google have already made public their takeover plans for Yelp, (a local review site) in a deal which could cost them over $600 million ... it certainly seems their funds are neverending.

Google Sitemap Index

 

Comment 1:  Can anyone help. I have a site which I'm always adding 33 sitemap.xml.gz. and one sitemap.xml.
I resubmit my sitemap to google about 4 month and up until recently the 'Indexed URLs' has been going up.
When I had 1,296,796 pages, google had indexed about 100,870.
when i had search in google site:agentworld.com 1 mont before its show 174000 but today is show 144,000 .
The crawler access is fine, the crawl errors only 14 Short meta descriptions .
What am I doing wrong?

Comment 2: The thing you are doing wrong is thinking that the site: search on Google is highly accurate on large website - it is not. When Google says that it is showing results 1-10 of 174,000 it is actually guessing that there are 174,000 pages. You should rely more on the numbers provided in Google Webmaster Central than the site:.
If you a million pages it is highly unlikely that Google will index all of the pages. To index a page Google needs to deem that the page is useful & unique. When you have a million pages there are bound to be some duplicate or near duplicate pages. That is why most large websites don't have 100% of their pages indexed.
Congrats on getting over 100,000 pages indexed! Hopefully they are driving traffic that is converting for you.
