A Space for All Things Chrome, Google, and More!
We’ve been saying the same thing for months at this point: Google may have stopped making in-house tablets, but plenty of Chrome OS tablets are on the way and in large number. It could be pretty easy to look at the current Chromebook landscape with Google’s grand tablet exit and conclude that Chrome OS is […]
For the past couple weeks, I’ve been battling off the feeling that I was a little crazy. I work most days at my desk with my Chromebook under my extended display and my eyes regularly dart back and forth between the two. In these past couple weeks, I’ve been noticing a slight screen abberation only […]
On this week’s episode of the podcast, we talk quite a bit about Stadia and how some of the early hiccups with the platform have now been smoothed out. From Buddy Passes rolling out to simple fixes in the input lag, we’ve all come around on the fledgling gaming service and can confidently see a […]
This time of year, everyone is looking for a deal. Deals are what it is all about, especially on Black Friday morning. While others are out standing in lines and braving some not-so-great elements in the process, there’s a wonderful alternative for those of you who are more inclined to the internet’s style of deal […]
If you are anything like me, you like to try things out. You may even miss the good old days of physical rentals. Digital downloads are nice and all, but I’m still a sucker for the days of ‘Be Kind Please Rewind’ on a beat up cassette tape. In the game industry, renting both hardware […]

These passes allow for Stadia Pro users to send a 3-month invite to a select friend and gift them with a full-blown trial of Stadia Pro for absolutely free.

Over the past week or so, Google has continued the evolution of the Switch to Chromebook website that now consists of a fully-overhauled introduction to Chromebooks, a ton of info about the benefits of Chrome OS and even a tool to help users make the switch. Additionally, there is a Chromebook selector tool that asks […]
Ah, the Pixel Slate. Google’s last try at a tablet gone a bit sideways, the oft-cast-aside, easily passable Chrome OS device. This premium metal and glass slab with a detaching keyboard and pen never quite made the impact it was supposed to, and that can be blamed on a slew of factors. Be it the […]
Our 24-hour first impressions of Stadia went out a few days ago, and though I was 100% behind the platform and a big fan of what it is and will likely become, I wasn’t shy about sharing a few of my disappointments with Stadia early on. Sure, I expected some artifacting when playing in a […]
In this week’s episode of The Chrome Cast, we are (not surprisingly) talking all about our first few days with Google Stadia.
