Google updated google chrome browser to have a new feature of running a Chrome OS App in metro.

Could this mean we can see something like this on WP8?

Share your thoughts.
 
Even if they develop one for wp8, will still love ie or any other 3rd party browser like uc browser,Taymur .
( I don't use any google services except YouTube :p )

So, you basically like everything but Google, hmmm.... interesting. you could have just said you hate Google LOL.
 
True, i thought it was an app, then realized that it just runs in the metro look and feel, but it still is a legacy app, i have no idea how that works. lol

the evil will never make app for windows phone or windows store,evil is so jelly. Google knows how beautiful metro UI is and if they develop one for metro ui,users will start loving the app, resulting in more sales for windows phone which they can tolerate.eg YouTube, third party apps like metro tube loos so beautiful when compared to YouTube app on other platforms.
 
They're using their private APIs for this (look at the scroll bar) so I hope Microsoft just bans Chrome from W8 until they force Google to rewrite it in HTML5.

Seriously! This is so underhanded. I hope MS will block Chrome from running in that Windows 8 mode because it goes against modern UI guidelines as well.

Haha, it would be sweet revenge if MS said something along the lines of, "You're breaking our terms, and Win8 is our backyard, so geeeet out!"

(The MS YouTube app was pretty nice :( )
 
Another reason not to buy a chromebook? Since you can run chrome os on any win8 machine, why buy a chromebook?

So you think it's a good idea for Microsoft to deny Windows users a potentially useful app?

Interesting opinion.
