Google Launches Native Client SDK to create native applications with Chrome

Do you remember Native Client? I said what Sacha Fuentes in late 2008, describing it as an environment to create native system applications to work through the browser, using C or C ++ for that. A year later we also did echo that Google was starting to testing with this environment in Chrome.

Now, after many months without hearing anything about him, Google finally launches Native Client SDK to all developers who want to perk up and try it. Thanks to this development environment, developers will be able to create browser applications that can seize all resources in the system: implementing multi-core, high-performance 3D, direct access to system memory ... of course, all it protected the Chrome sandboxing system so that nobody can use these features to enter the system from the browser.
So far the development environment works with the beta channel of Chrome, which is right now the version 10. There are versions for Windows, Mac and Linux and because it is still at an early stage, Google has already warned that its appearance you could change as the SDK evolve.

The simple idea of ​​being able to use native applications from the browser has big implications, but if we stop to think of Chrome OS and mobile browsers the possibilities multiply. And cuiriosamente, all revolve around the internet browser and the cloud.
