Google's new operating system to take on Microsoft Google is developing a new operating system for laptop computers in its boldest challenge yet to Microsoft's control over people's computing experience. The new operating system will run through Google ( GOOG - news - people )'s nine-month-old Web browser, Chrome, according to a post late Tuesday night on the Mountain View-based company's Web site. Google plans to introduce the operating system during the second half of 2010. The new operating system is being designed for "netbooks," a low-cost, less powerful breed of laptops that is becoming increasingly popular among consumers primarily interested in a having a computer to surf the Web. The Chrome browser could threaten Microsoft ( MSFT - news - people )'s Windows system, which has been running most personal computers for the past two decades.

Already been posted here, http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1407854 but I've checked the official site and it didn't mention anything about the name of the OS to be "Goog" as you put it.
I love Google as a search engine and traffic/profit source only, even if they are really trying to take over the computer world..! I'll stick to Microsoft Windows, at least they have more than 20 years of experience developing operation systems
