YouOS - the Online OS

YouOS

I just read a thing on Cnet about it...It's an online OS, much like Google's online word processor thing...It's free, so try it out...It's cool...

 

[MetalMat]

Checkin it out right now

 

[ruffilb]

Meh, I imagine it'll always be too slow for my needs. If I want data/whatever on the fly, I'll upload it somewhere else. Faster int he long run.

Its from the makers of youtube?

Looks like it, actually.

all apps will be online, eventually. we'll all be running portable devices that talk to a ubiqitous wirelss network, constantly transmitting, constantly upgrading software, running processes on faster computers but just transmitted to and displayed on our devices.....
