Google Chrome Operating System
Google's blog announces a natural extension of the Chrome project: an operating system for netbooks. "Google Chrome OS is an open source, lightweight operating system that will initially be targeted at netbooks. Later this year we will open-source its code, and netbooks running Google Chrome OS will be available for consumers in the second half of 2010. (...) Google Chrome OS will run on both x86 as well as ARM chips and we are working with multiple OEMs to bring a number of netbooks to market next year. The software architecture is simple — Google Chrome running within a new windowing system on top of a Linux kernel."
As people use more and more web applications, the operating system becomes less important and it makes no sense to pay for it. The desktop mail client could be replaced by Gmail, the calendaring application could be replaced by Google Calendar, the office suite has lightweight alternatives: Google Docs and Zoho, it makes more sense to use an online feed reader like Google Reader, your scientific calculator is less powerful than Wolfram Alpha and you'll rarely need a video player when you have YouTube, Hulu and other video sites.
This idea is not new and there are already operating systems optimized for the browser. For example, Good OS announced last year Cloud, an operating system that "integrates a web browser with a compressed Linux operating system kernel for immediate access to Internet, integration of browser and rich client applications, and full control of the computer from inside the browser". If Google manages to create a great user interface, the new operating system could be very successful.

Congratulations Alex on being so far ahead with the name of your blog!ReplyDelete
It was a surprise when I first heard of it.ReplyDelete
But, reflecting upon the recent developments it seems like something which was always in the pipelines.
Google has the vision and the capability to change the way people use computers and, I am sure, sooner or later they wud achieve their goal.
As customers, lets hope the change is for good.
This is an announcement I have been waiting for since August 2004!ReplyDelete
Well done, Google!

"We realized that the web had evolved from mainly simple text pages to rich, interactive applications and that we needed to completely rethink the browser." Yes, yes, yes and three time yes again and again and again. Great blogname and blog itself, thanks.ReplyDelete
I love the thought of a web OS. I have been dreaming about it since last 5 years and must have signed up for every virtual desktop out there. But, they just didn't cut it.ReplyDelete
I truly hope that projects such as Google Chrome OS and other open source variants such as Ubuntu Netbook Remix, make a statement and come OEMed onto a variety of consumer devices.
Good luck!
Well, does that make you qeausy that your blog name is synonymous with the product Google is coming with?ReplyDelete
Does anyone else find it interesting that Microsoft is working on something similar in the form of their Gazelle project?ReplyDelete
And wouldn't this be an issue as the European Commission made a big deal of Microsoft having built IE6 right into Windows XP stating that it was an integral part of the OS.
I hope it will compatible with desktops too !ReplyDelete
Everyone aware of what Goog has been doing has been waiting years for this - and I'm surprised they haven't already put out something like this. The world desperately needs to get caught back up to where we would have been if it wasn't for the browser wars, software patents, and Windows viruses. We've been held down and abused by MS for waaaaaay too many years - and it was only a matter of time before Goog brought the power of Linux and the open source community to the masses in a cohesive way.ReplyDelete
No mention anywhere (err, yet) on where/how to get this os & try it out...ReplyDelete
Is there a timeline posted somewhere?!?

Seems like extension of ideas which pushed the launch of Android, since - when netbooks appeared - the borders between normal pcs and Internet Mobile Devices suddenly blurred.ReplyDelete
But THAT product is not like others. This is NEWS.

But this system will be succesful not thanks to interface - but rather thanks to its security, stability, performance, and last but not least -interoperability (other existing soft working on that system).ReplyDelete
i hope it will be very flexibleReplyDelete
some sites "forcefully" checks for IE, so perhaps the browser has an option to be masked as IE ?
what bout tools like RAR, ZIP, Daemon-tools, Mediacoder, Klite codec pack, etc... ?
@Nick Chan AbdullahReplyDelete
Well, the browser could probably have "interfaces" written to handle such things with external programs.
They could hold a central database of file extensions, check the headers of unknown files and then ask to download the program.
If it is a known file type, launch the program with the file appended after the command.
This might be harder to do across several OSes in the future, though.
They certainly have a lot of things to work out for launch.
Also, cue the hundreds of people who will end up getting pointed to your blog thinking it is the official blog.
I have already seen such a thing before on a forum and found it pretty funny.

When people automatically start identifying new hardware as well as software with the Google name. Microsoft will have to invest their shrinking billions trying to compete in a market place where they have no real expertise.

- AnonymousJuly 8, 2009 at 6:02 AM
Serioursly, who actually uses Google Chrome? I had high hopes for Google as they branched out from being strictly a search engine to a software as a service provider, but have been repeatedly disappointed. I saw Google as the one vendor perfectly positioned to take on MS, but have yet to see their financial capital,engineering ingenuity produce game changing results.ReplyDelete
Their code seems to never leave beta, their messenger product leaves much to be desired, and their desktop search works but is nothing revolutionary.
I tried chrome for a total of 2hrs before returning to Firefox. Knowing every mouse click was cc'd to Google in addition to Chrome's inferior build quality simply was not something I was willing to tolerate when far surperior browsers were available (think Safari, Firefox, even IE7 for that matter).
I think Google's only possible recipe for success would be to completely abandon their current direction, build a hypervisor based OS instead, and provide a product that can virtualize EVERYTHING. When Google's OS can run Apple apps, Linux apps, Linux Distros, and Windows Apps / OS's all atop a Google based hypervisor, they will have taken a revolutionary step forward vs. an evolutionary step backwards. The problem of course is that with this model Google will have to find new ways to make revenue, traditionally hypervisors make money through their management tools, not the hypervisor itself.
Relying on the open source community to produce applications and features for your OS is doing nothing more than joining the existing overcrowded Linux distro segment.
Although it may sound un-competitive, the fact is, Google should either stick to being a search engine or dedicate real resources to software and application development. If it continues to disappoint its fans with substandard software, endless beta code, and disappointing applications, its fan base will continue to not take it seriously.

Netbook?? Get back to us when you are serious about an OS.......ReplyDelete
Congratulations, Ionut: you were 1,355 days ahead! :)ReplyDelete
Google always seems to amaze me!ReplyDelete
This is actually a very impressive thing for Google to do. Like they say in their blog this can only mean greater competition in a market that can defiantly use it.
Unlike the Anonymous people above me who feel that this will not be a viable solution. Look at where Google has come with Gmail and its Apps. I bet nobody took those seriously when they first launched either. These are VERY viable solutions Google is not trying to attack the market of people who sit at a desk everyday and have Room for a full size laptop/desktop. But more towards the Business traveler/ anyone else who only needs a simple easy to use solution that just simply works well.
Way to go Goog!

Somehow Google needs to make money, and it is likely this will be through advertisement. Then the internet will be more and more like TV (as it is already becoming). Remember when one of the advantages of cable was no commercials(vs the networks)? That soon disappeared. Although I guess if this project is open source you could figure out how to 'deal' with the advertising if your programming savvy.ReplyDelete

Please also see Google Android. No ads built into the OS, as far as I am aware :) Some on some apps, probably, but the app developers are not forced to add them.
Anyway, did Google ever say Chrome OS was going to be free? Everyone just assumes Google = Free nowadays. Maybe a free version with ads, and a paid-for version without?

Maybe I am more Luddite than I care to admit, but I do wonder about the near future of cloud computing. The simple fact of the matter is that access to the cloud is not yet universal.

I bought my first PC in late 1984, and I've lost track of what number this one is; however, as the computer has grown in scope, I know that while I maxxed out how I used my first computer, I don't come even close now. I've worked tech support and over the years have helped thousands of people. None of them utilized anywhere close to the capabilities of their machines. There are vast numbers of people who have a need to be part of the 21st C and computer technology and internet use. They don't need a miniaturized Cray. They don't need to master programming inexplicablies, such as Linux. I think a notebook with your OS sounds just about perfect for the average user.ReplyDelete
To the haters: yes, we know there are cloud operating systems. Yes, we know it's just Linux.ReplyDelete

Google is coming into a market that is filled with ignorant people. I have seen the video where random people were interviewed and when asked what internet browser they were using, they simply replied Google.
That's how closely related Google is, to the internet. But to open our operating system to Google as well?
What is wrong with Ubuntu if you want a Linux distro? Unless netbooks comes shipped with the OS, it would take a lot of effort for Google Chrome OS to gain acceptance.
People tech-savvy enough to know how to reformat and re-install their OS would probably install Windows XP (even though I think it's really a terrible piece of OS. I prefer my Windows 7), people not tech-savvy enough would STILL ask for Windows XP because it's Windows.
Yes when Gmail arrived, Yahoo! Mail fell out of favour. Yes when Google came, Yahoo fell out of favour. But this time, Google is fighting against Windows and Mac OS. And I'm afraid there are much more fanboys for Mac than there ever would be, for Google.
Isn't that just this? http://www.thinkgos.com/cloud/index.htmlReplyDelete

I have always wanted to run Linux, but I've never bothered because the software just isn't there. Here is my dream scenario:ReplyDelete
1) Google OS takes off in a big way when people see they can pay less for a netbook with Google OS instead of Windows. They are pleasantly surprised by the speed and stability of the Linux kernel, even if they can't identify it by name.
2) People who are used to Google OS on their netbooks want the same experience on their home PCs as well. OEMs start producing systems with Google OS installed, and they sell well.
3) Its increasing popularity forces major software vendors to create Google OS-compatible (and therefore Linux-compatible) versions of their software. (Namely Photoshop and mainstream video games.) Smaller software vendors follow suit, until most software that worked on Windows now works on Google OS.
4) With most of the barriers to entry removed, Google OS becomes the operating system of choice for the casual user.
5) With those same barriers to entry removed, other Linux flavors become the operating system of choice for the serious user.
6) Computing becomes safer, faster, and more stable. Linux software quality increases exponentially as the pool of hobbyists grows.
7) Microsoft ceases to exist as a maker of operating systems, and is forced instead to become a vendor of Linux-compatible software. The closed-source software model fades into near-obscurity.
Great news! I have always hoped for this very day!ReplyDelete
As Swefse said, May You Live Forever, and May You Forever Live in Peace!
It was always in pipeline, a lot of people didnt believe when I told, that once every application is in place they just have to put the OS under it. Its the opposite of what MS did and was so obvious.ReplyDelete
BUT, what I thought was they will charge something for the OS. Looks like they are not. Its an open source.
whether they charge or not, I am already sold out. Because already I am running everything google on Vista. And believe me the google apps run better than MS apps on a an MS OS :)
Here are a few tips on how to monetize Google Chrome OS:ReplyDelete
- short Microsoft stock
- long Google
- write a book on Chrome OS
- add "10 years of Chrome OS experience" to your resume
- offer PowerPC and other processors support
- register lots of Chrome OS-related URLs now and sell them later

Great idea. Build a citrix like piece of crap that can run almost any application slower and less dependably than the OS for which it was built. Yeah...
Two pointers google. I hope you are listening because I'll save you a lot of problems later.
1) Build this operating system to be extremely fast, unobtrusive, reliable, and secure.
2) Declare up front that this OS will never include built in analytics, tracking features, or other Jay Rockefeller/Orwellian privacy violating crap.
If you don't make this an honest, clean product, the open source community will abandon you and you will be left with a glorified palm OS.
I think the important underlying evolution is that users don't have to mess with operating systems and applications. I think someday, I turn a device on (which potentially have everything on FPGA) and I use my favorite application in a GUI environment.ReplyDelete
Consider the following "The IBM 3270 is a class of terminals made by IBM since 1972 (known as "display devices") normally used to communicate with IBM mainframes."
The operative word is "display devices", call it netbook if you have to. I think we are almost at the end of loop-1. From 3270 dumb terminals to netbook dumb terminals. We had a quick stop at "smart phones"

Vista is a great example of this. Poor quality, full of bugs and poor performance.
Goggle, do your stuff, but don't break Linux. Linux offers a open source platform which has waited many years for large scale investment, keep the solid platform open and build on top of it.
Oh and Goggle, please supply a suitable development environment, otherwise how can MS engineers like me migrate to chrome.
This is actually terrible. For a company to have access to people's files and programs is bad. It's a threat to privacy and a threat to democracy.

built on linux kernel, extensively use chrome, all apps will be web apps and can be developed with any web dev language.
fairly generic linux under the hood, will launch a customized, simplified, "watered-down" version of X. this version of X will be optimized for and pretty much only contain the facilities to open and manage windows of a slightly modified Chrome browser. All of your GUI stuff will be web interfaces. If interfacing to a backend on the web, done. If interfacing to a local program, interfaces to cmdline backend utils.

It is based on the Chrome open source code, but without the reporting and spying. I am using Version 3 now, have been using it since launch. It is FAST and minimalistic, though like the others not 100% perfect. Very rarely I use Firefox to get around some annoying block placed on Iron/Chrome, but that is less and less common as it advances.

Take googles home page, where you one can make up their own homepage, I just love it! it has so many neat things. so if they come out with an os, i will be one of the first to jump in!ReplyDelete
keep up the great work google!!!!

I believe the long term future of computing is buying processing power over fibre optic.... back the the old 'dumb' terminal. We will buy processing power/storage from a supplier across fibre, just as you buy broad band capacity just now. So hopefully, this new Google operating system may be very early stage.ReplyDelete

How many of these enthusiasts work directly or in direstly for GoogleReplyDelete
The problem will always be the same.ReplyDelete
A lot of people just read email and things like that, but most of the people is used to other programs, like music creation, video editing, games and other. So unless chrome can take on all this running things like protools, sonar, photoshop and such... is domed to die.
Other thing is that large corporations use windows on their workstations, they wont switch to another OS just like that.
In that area Microsoft will remain the king for a long time.
And other really important thing is drivers, they are starting in laptops because they know what hardware is inside the box so they can build the drivers for it.
The same problem that linux has, who will develop comercially for linux and expect to be rich??? Just a few... Will it use RPM or what??? Another packaging stuff... ???? No thanks... something like NDISWrapper??? could work... but not really.
This is just another linux distro.
Alright let me hand it to you gently and I find this very funny how many unintelligent people are replying to this. As a follower of the many products Google provides in the "oh so" many market areas of the Interweb, I can honestly say here that any person that bashes their new OS coming out and anything else they are doing is an undermined idiot. Now I will explain why this will be revolutionizing and changes everything we so far grasp.ReplyDelete
For some of you look at a new product from Google coming out called GoogleWave and look at what they did with the open source Android and look at how they revolutionized Gmail with JavaScript and Ajax. Google is doing a real good job with its annual billions that they make hiring some of the brightest minds out there with location all over the world.
Look at the google maps application and Google earth as a piece of art software related. Anyone that says that the new Google Chrome OS is going to be just another OS on top of the Linux kernel has new idea of the new picture called Cloud Computing. Google is not about search and ads anymore because that is what they needed to make all these things happen. It might not seem that Google Chrome as browser is that good but think about how fast it is and how it uses a separate process for every tab. How easy it is to search and how simple yet effective the start page is.
As a developer myself, I am excited what new awesome open source software google brings us.
1. O3D = APIs for running 3D web applications, games (O3D will be a part of Chrome)ReplyDelete
2. Native Client = running x86 native code in web applications, while maintaining OS portability (example: Quake)
3. Gears, HTML5 = local storage, offline web applications
These tools are probably enough for creating complex web applications for image/video editing, but I don't think that those who buy netbooks want to use Photoshop.
- AnonymousJuly 9, 2009 at 1:03 PM
It's easy to get over-excited about cloud computing. Listen to the old timers, even as someone who wasn't around the first time their wisdom is obvious, we are handing ourselves over from a proprietary Microsoft trap to a proprietary Google trap, except they get our documents, etc as well as all our other data.ReplyDelete
They have a rubbish privacy policy and track record. I don't like being tracked by them but have to use their search engine to get a meaningful experience from the internet, the others don't cut it. This means constantly changing my IP number and deleting googles cookies, it's annoying.
Linux is rubbish. Sorry. I am writing this from Linux too (although that's not what it says on my internet headers, I like to blend in with the Windows zombie-ready systems and have the wrong attacks levelled at me :)). X is an ancient piece of trash and Google could, if they do it properly, by killing X and doing the GUI from the ground-up ALA Mac-OS style with a 21st century system and not worrying about being backwards compatible level Microsoft here, for good. They already have Adobe on board, it's looking good for power apps. Many companies would consider outsourcing some of their IT infrastructure to save money. But Google, if you read this, please don't get greedy about peoples data. Big Wig CTO of DingDongKong Inc doesn't want you looking at his offshore bank account numbers, or passing along the bid price they are planning for ToBeConsolidatedInc to the US Government for under-bidding. You must, must still allow us to be able to have our own off-line data too or I am afraid you will fail in the enterprise, and with the geeks and power users less IT proficient users ask for advice about what to put on their systems, the very people who would lend their support to you if you actually fix the Linux GUI so we have something with the power of KDE, the application stability of OS X and the security of OpenBSD.
But I think the guy above is right, you will probably just make a lame version of X that loads Chrome. If you do this, your OS will be a minor curiosity in history.

Honestly, for a Netbook which is designed to be lightweight, portable and fast for web browsing and basic office functions (Email Client, small Office apps and the like), this OS may do very well.ReplyDelete
As for a major replacement for a Desktop OS? Not so much so, at least, it will be an uphill struggle. A very STEEP hill.
Now, for those that want a low cost PC solution to just get on the net, browse, watch some vids and get email, this may work for them as well.
I guess the only way to find out is to wait and see though.

Why a netbook OS if they will be as good as desktop computers on few years? Hmmm... There is something there. They will be able to track all our movements , even when not logging in into Google and charge to use even a simple notepadReplyDelete
Everyone aware of what Goog has been doing has been waiting years for this - and I'm surprised they haven't already put out something like this. The world desperately needs to get caught back up to where we would have been if it wasn't for the browser wars, software patents, and Windows viruses. We've been held down and abused by MS for waaaaaay too many years - and it was only a matter of time before Goog brought the power of Linux and the open source community to the masses in a cohesive way.ReplyDelete

I think it is a fantastic idea because most people that use computers are the bunch of whiners who written before me. One of the GREAT problem with LINUX at the moment is its COMPLEXITY for the average users. I hope Google work out a good and simple user interface like in their other products that will bring more users to Linux. Personally, I'd really love to have Linux be the main OS for everybody and the GUI changed from person to person. The interoperability of the Linux Kernel is fantastic. Package installation and repositories is also a goddamn good thing.ReplyDelete
Going Linux is stupid... Don't get me wrong I love that it's a (somewhat) capable alternative OS but it's so fragmented that a simple update of an app requires updates for core components of the OS and breaks compatibility with many other apps... That and having to build and debug setup if their not in you distro repository... Without standardization of system APIs and components through the cooperation between the major distros and major usability improvements Linux will never be a mainstream OS. Look at Windows, most apps currently released will work in old and currently unsupported OS versions aswell as the new ones (and you don't need to do a backflip to get it running).ReplyDelete
If Google wants to get a share of Windows users (or just plain hurt Microsoft) they should take a look and get involved in ReactOS (still way way alpha)! Give people a lite free alternative that is compatible with Windows binaries and drivers (native support is way better than Wine) and that has some general imporvements (like a tabbed file manager) and you mean business! Release yet another Linux distro... Good luck with that.
Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to bash Linux or Google but this is what I sincerely believe that would work.
well google is the best search engine. but he made opereting system. may be he popluer like google engine.ReplyDelete

@Anonymous July 29, you are wrong, at least on my case.ReplyDelete
It's not the market share what worries me, it's about ethics and bussiness practices. The big difference between a Google monopoly and a MS one is the "Don't be evil" principle, and openess.
M$ has a long history of killing their competitors by using non-public Windows apis (that's how they killed Borland C++), by tying their products together and make others not able to communicate with them (MSN protocol, Windows Explorer setting search engine and all accelerators by default to M$, in the entreprise space they only join standards late when they are forced to). Money is the only driver.
Google on the other hand, keeps a good balance between being profitable and also non-intrusive, respecting their users. M$ would put flahshy, 1/3 of the window ads when they are market leaders; users have to use it anyway. Google thinks on the user too, and gives always the choice for others to connect trough APIs or standards on a very reasonable way.
I don't like monopolies, but I would be much happier with a Google monopoly than with a M$ one.
I am so looking forward when Google has their own PCs. Then it will all be a total Google experience. I bet they would name their first PC...Google Desk. Heehee.. I so love Google I am looking to when I can be all Google! Google me, Google you.ReplyDelete

Lets face it linux is good and I love it and use it but but very few other people use it compared to windos or mac operating systems... MY question is how is chrome going to succeed any better than linux is right now? One of the main reasons that people dont use linux is that it cant run windows aplications and the other is that moast people already have another operating system and see no reason to install a new one. now correct me if im wrong but I havent heard anything about chrome being able to run windows apps.ReplyDelete
What chrome really needs to do is to be able to run applications from multiple oss and then focus on making it, well, beter than xp(making it better than windows 7 and vista is too much to ask for)
Anonymous said on 31 July that people don't use Linux because it can't run Windoze applications. Well, that's not really true but it's beside the point anyway. One doesn't need to run Windoze software nor do one need to have software loaded on his own machine to be productive. With the overwhelming majority of people using their computers for email, web surfing, and simple word processing, Google's vision of a small, fast browser-based OS that needs far fewer resources than a full installation of Windows, OS/X, or Linux has a lot of merit, in my opinion. Netbooks are flying off the shelves now and will sell even faster when they cost $50 to $100 less than they do today, have better performance, and battery life in terms of days rather than hours. It seems Google's vision is not evolution of an OS but rather revolution. It's called breakthrough or out-of-the-box thinking and Google's way to wage asymmetric warfare against it's competitors. Google is a leader, not a follower and they realize the futility of chasing Microsoft when they can leapfrog them.ReplyDelete

Imagine the performance of IE and google chrome. I am excited to think of it in case of Google operating system.
A fundamental weakness of Windows is real-time control. For example, a major atomic-force-microscope company refuses to develop software for platforms actively supported by Microsoft because Microsoft has zero respect for user timing. If you can take advantage of the Linux platform to field an operating system that truly gives user inputs real-time priority over OS book-keeping, that could be very popular and fill a real technical need as well.ReplyDelete

Meh... My point of view remains: yet another linux distro won't change a thing. People won't abbandon their Win machines based only in MS hate when the alternative OS doesn't present the exact same productivity aplications (for professional) and others. Gamers will never adopt it. Good luck trying to convince people to dump all their applications and games (and yeah I know about Wine).ReplyDelete
Also a web OS... Come on give me a break! You can go on and talk about how great Palm Pre is or how many users it has but the fact is that having applications locally is a lot better, faster, works everywhere and without spending money! We don't have global wireless free coverage (not yet anyway) so this sort of OS is destined to ultimately fail to atract the masses as a suitable replacement for traditional OS.
As cool as web applications may be, online office suites are far from being a close or even suitable replacement for traditional office suites.
It may find a small niche in low end machines or netbook in users with unlimited data plans but all the others...
So far Chome is very far from taking the web browser throne (Firefox plugins will still make it the big winner as far as I can foresee). Chrome as a browser currently presents only one big advantage: separate processes per tab (and that's going into Firefox in the near future).
As I said before Microsoft will easily brush off this OS like it has other Linux flavours. The only thing that would have impact is a free, open source, NT based, 100% Windows application/driver compliant OS.
Most of the MS haters, Linux fanboys are too stubborn to admit that as it stands Linux is a major FAIL as an OS for the masses. It's true. Synaptic has made thing a lot easier but the fact is it's still not enough. Many other things are still very much elite only and hardware isn't fully exploited by the OS... May I ask how many of these users have a Win distro in another partition?
Google should get behind ReactOS. God knows the team could use more devs and supporters (the generic OSS Linux dev won't even look at it based generally on MS hate). It's "Windows" but not Windows. Fight fire with fire! I know I'm eagerly awaiting for a more functional release.

gamers will move to google based os with no problems, linux is cool but is not a fully functional os, unlike a billion dollar company's os. catch my drift?ReplyDelete
Yea i dunno about all that. The web is not anywhere near replacing my photoshop or other software that I use. The other major difference is that google docs...as great as it may be (I use it a lot)... is nowhere near the MS Office suite or even Open Office for that matter. The other major drawback that I face when I tried converting over to becoming a linux purist was the problem of syncing calendars and contacts. Even with windows there is no support (that I know of, that is completely free and easy) to sync with the google calendar and contacts apps. There also needs to be offline support for every single one of these products. Who wants to be dead in the water without internet access? If someone's buying a netbook, they are probably mobile and on a budget and aren't looking to pay for WiFi everytime it's available. Personally, I think the google OS will only be able to target a very small minority of users... We are nowhere close to a WebOS yet. You just can't develop web programs like you can for the desktop...not yet. This is all my opinion, if it works for you great!ReplyDelete
In reply to the poster above, how could a gamer move to google os with such ease? People already go through hell to play games on linux through wine and cadega...

Once opted-in to the program, MJ$ will earn and accrue for redemption as described below until the MJ$ expire or the user leaves the program.
All information collected and used to facilitate the Moosejaw Rewards program is directly related to the program's ability to provide value to the customer. A customer opting-in to the Moosejaw Rewards program is a separate action from establishing a user profile as a result of making a purchase.
The program opt-in requirement was added on August 6th, 2019. Existing program members prior to that date must still formally opt-in and accept the terms and conditions to continue to retain, earn and redeem MJ$. Pre-existing program members that fail to opt-in prior to June 28, 2020 will be removed from the program, and any unused MJ$ will be voided. We really, really don't want to that to happen, so please opt-in or we'll feel terrible.
Leaving Moosejaw Rewards Program:
You may choose to leave the Moosejaw Rewards program at any time by logging in and clicking on the "Opt out Rewards Program" link within the My Account Summary page, Email, calling 877-MOOSEJAW (877-666-7352) or in-store with help from our employees. If you leave the rewards program, any unused MJ$ will be voided upon completion of your request.
Earning MJ$:
All items we sell are eligible with the exception of gift cards or other items specifically noted. Full-priced items earn 10% back while discounted items earn 2.5%. "Discounted items" includes items on sale or discounted via coupon code or use of MJ$. You do not earn MJ$ for shipping or tax charges, only from the item value. MJ$ expire two years after earning and are redeemed on a first-in, first out basis (in other words, we always use your oldest MJ$ that are closest to expiration).
Checking & Redeeming MJ$:
On Moosejaw.com, just sign-in on any page to see your available balance. Once signed in, you will see your available MJ$ and maximum that can be redeemed in the payment section of the checkout process. In stores, provide the email address attached to your account to learn your balance and apply to your purchase. We will also send you a monthly email that details your balance and other account activity. This is a transactional email that you will receive even if you are not subscribed to our marketing emails.
Bonus Rewards Promotions:
Every so often, we'll have special offers where you can earn bonus MJ$, like an additional 10%, 20% or 40% back. So if we are running a 50% back special offer, and you buy a regular-priced item for $100.00, you will receive MJ$10.00 in base points, and a bonus of MJ$40. These special offers may have a cap on how many bonus MJ$ you earn during the promotion, but you will always earn the base Reward Dollars. Make sure to check us out on our social channels for other ways to win some extra MJ$!
MJ$ on Gift Cards:
You don't get earn MJ$ when you buy a gift card, but you do get MJ$ when you spend a gift card. Sorry gift givers. You're welcome gift receivers.
Product Returns and MJ$:
If you return an item, we deduct the MJ$ earned on that item from your balance. If you used the MJ$ and your balance is less than deduction, then your refund is reduced by the difference.
Program Abuse:
The intent of the program is to provide our loyal customers with a way to buy great gear for less. Moosejaw reserves the right to remove any user from the program and zero out their MJ$ balance if Moosejaw determines that the user is abusing the program by buying for resale, attempting to game the program or any other reason at Moosejaw's sole discretion.
By opting out, you forfeit all the Moosejaw Rewards Dollars your currently have in your account, which is basically throwing away free money. What would your grandmother say about that? If you're 100% sure, please click "OptOut" below.

Enter your order number and email address below.
When will I get my stuff?
"Get it by" - For in-stock and ready to ship items, choose the your shipping speed at checkout to get your items by the "get it by" date. Your items will ship SAME DAY for orders placed before 3pm EST.
"Oversized" - This means the item is large and can only be shipped using 4-6 Day ship speed. Additional shipping charges may apply.
"Freight" - This means the item is too large for standard shipping methods, and must be shipped by truck freight for an additional fee. Someone must be present to inspect, sign, and accept delivery, so we will call you to schedule delivery.
If you have any questions, please Live Chat or call us at 877-666-7352.
We want to make extra-sure you realize that you've added a special order item to your cart. These items take a little longer to get to you because we have to order from the manufacturer first. The "Est. Ship Date" is the date we expect items to leave our warehouse... so add your chosen shipping speed to see when it will show up at your door.

We Were Promised Jetpacks
In The Pit Of The Stomach
Fatcat Records
This second album from Edinburgh quartet We Were Promised Jetpacks is aptly named; their aggressive brand of indie rock delivers a bracing blow. Predominantly up-tempo, and heavy on the drums, it's perfect if you're looking for something to energise you in the morning. Think Razorlight or Franz Ferdinand, then crank it up a few notches.
Those who prefer their music toned down and tuneful, though, may find the album a little too "pit of the stomach" for comfort. While things briefly take a gentler turn on Act on Impulse and Pear Tree, it's never quite enough to allow you to catch your breath. Instead, you're on a knife edge, waiting for the next crescendo of percussion and guitars.
Even fans of subtlety, however, will enjoy Adam Thompson's lead vocals – textured enough to balance out the tempestuous backing – and the band's growing reputation really speaks for itself. With a major UK tour in October, and having supported such big-hitters as Jimmy Eat World, they're clearly a force to be reckoned with. www.wewerepromisedjetpacks.com
