That _Chrome_. The questions is whether this app runs there, since it's using NaCl, which is not exactly portable across hardware architectures.
Can someone please explain to me why I would possibly want to run a terminal emulator inside of my web browser, instead of just using the terminal emulator app that my system ships with?
Windows doesn't have good terminal emulator. This extension is almost like having gnome-terminal on Windows. SSH into a remote machine and you have the usual keyboard navigation that the Windows "terminal" doesn't offer.
The Chrome extension could be nice for preconfigured "many-to-many" single-sign on from/to a number of hosts with a (hopefully encrypted) RSA key, however.

the complete list of software i use day-to-day consists of a web browser and a terminal emulator. if i switched over to this, that list goes down to just a browser. maybe some people don't care, but i think it's pretty cool.
I don't like the idea of using a single app for everything. I have tons and tons of (personal) reasons, but the most obvious and un-solvable reason is: I can switch between terminal emulator and web browser with Command+Tab. If they were both the same thing, I couldn't do it and I would be very disturbed and confused. The same reason I don't use GMail web app and use Mail.app instead, or Reeder.app or iCal.app or iTu…
On Ubuntu 12.04, I get this, and then it seems to hang. Anyone have this working on Linux? Welcome to Secure Shell version 0.7.9. The list of Frequently Asked Questions is available here: http://goo.gl/m6Nj8 Connecting to wellsj@greensboro.timco.aero, port 22... Loading NaCl plugin...
So it doesn't work? Maybe Google didn't enable NaCl by default in Linux. You can enable it yourself.
Downloading the official chrome build works.
Thanks.

Sorry, not yet.

You know you can Ctrl+Tab between tabs in most web browsers, right?
But to be honest that's not how I actually do my stuff. I use QuickSilver[1] and when I want to go to Mail.app, I just press Cmd-Space, then 'M' or 'Ma' (because Mail.app begins with M) and press return. It takes less than 0.4 seconds (QS is wicked fast) and is much more convenient than a tab in my browser. Not to mention that a native app is usually way faster and more responsive (I have a ridiculously slow internet connection).

This is actually completely solvable, if it was something lots of people wanted to do it could be trivially built into any browser.
It could be built into FF globally with an extremely simple plugin.

On Windows and *nix--well Ubuntu at least--you can drag a browser tab into a new window and then Alt-Tab between them. Is there no equivalent on a Mac?
this is insanely awesome. as it stands right now, yes its "just ssh". But open up the developer toolbar and you'll notice this thing is rendering HTML inside of webkit. It doesn't take a genius to see this is a few baby steps from making it possible to render arbitrary graphics in the shell. edit: I might go out on a limb here and say this project is something that is going to be looked at as a real inflection point…
Public/private key authentication seems a bit spotty. From the FAQ, > Can I connect using a public key pair or certificate? Sorry, not yet. I successfully authenticated with a private key, debug1: read PEM private key done: type DSA debug1: Authentication succeeded (publickey). However, authentication agent forwarding (ssh -A) did not work, Permission denied (publickey). Also notable is that this app does not have ac…
