Google has today unveiled its plans for its new OS, Google Chrome OS. The cloud based OS promises to fundamentally change the way people work on the go when it launches next year. 

Based on the Chrome Browser, Google has said that it will focus on three things, speed, security, and simplicity. 

Google says they expect to have device manufacturers announce devices, such as netbooks and "smartbooks" in the middle on next year with the new OS expected to be launched around November 2010.
