The Chromecast is a 2-inch dongle that doesnt look much different from a USB thumb drive you might plug into your laptop. The dongle runs off a simplified version of Googles Chrome OS, and has only 256k of memory which is nothing. However, it doesnt need to have a ton of memory because its not much more than a glorified gateway. It gets plugged into your HDTVs HDMI port, connected to your homes Wi-Fi network, and s as a portal for the content on your mobile devices to be cast onto your TV.\r

Thanks to its “all devices” philosophy, Chromecast can run on Android tablets and smartphones, iPads and iPhones, and Chrome for Mac and Windows. However, those with BlackBerry or Windows phones are out of luck … for the most part. Recently, a new app called Tube Cast was developed, which offers some limited Youtube functionality for Windows phones over Chromecast; but for now, its safe to say that functionality is extremely limited at best.
