It was bound to happen. And just as anticipated, it took less than a day before someone successfully rooted the new Nexus S smartphone from Google and Samsung.
The Nexus S is powered by Google's new Android 2.3 OS (Gingerbread) and went on sale last Thursday. That day, Koush over at the XDA-Developers Forum posted his Root and Recovery Guide for the Nexus S, giving you tools and knowledge needed to root your own Nexus S device.

If that one doesn't work for you, or you're looking for more detailed instructions for rooting your Nexus S smartphone, the Root the Nexus S in 5 Minutes guide from The Gadgets can help you out. It's based off Koush's directions, only with more details for the amateurs.
Both guides assume that you already have the Android SDK installed on your computer.
