New Google Apps For Linux Coming

techoon writes "The goal of the Google Linux Client Team is to develop Linux desktop applications, such as the official Linux versions of Google Earth and Google Picasa. This team made an interesting splash during a presentation at the first-ever Linux Foundation Collaboration Summit, which they had kindly hosted at their Mountain View campus. The Google presenters claimed some 'significant accomplishments' and other new Google desktop applications coming out this year for the Linux platform."

Re:Funny enough, I just installed googleearth...

Nobody said that you had to do it that way. That's only if you want it integrated with the package manager. You could just download the installation file from Google and install it that way if you so desire. Furthermore, I really don't care if it's easy for non-Linux users, or if people "jump over" to Linux. Use whatever operating system you want, I really couldn't care less.
