Superhero +Addy Osmani just released a google-signin element for authenticating with Google services. Handy!

Ok I added a howto document to my chromebook pixel driver repo that anyone should be able to use to replicate my install.  Unlike what the Google guys have posted it shows you exactly how to get Linux installed natively onto the SSD.  And also, unlike what the Google guys have posted, it shows you how to get the touchpad and touchscreen fully working in that install.  To say that I am disappointed with how Google has facilitated this so far would be an understatement.  They owe me.

Here's a link to an external copy of that doc on the web.
