Check out the Screenshot of the OS,
Is it realy possible to create a such an OS ???
Yup. It is possible. YouOS proved in its recent alpha release of OS, Itz long way to reach but it is proved Web-based OS is very much possible.
You may post me a question what is it? From the author's web-site,
what is YouOS?
YouOS is a web operating system that lets you run diverse
applications within a web browser. Small applications like sticky notes or
clocks. Large applications like word processing, mp3 players, and instant
messaging. Even better, it's very easy to tweak an existing application or write
your own.
Would "YouOS" be a threat to GooOS?
It seems to be... GooOS is in news for atleast 2 years by now. It seems to be a slow progress in GooOS, could be very much efficient any other OS. But YouOS proved it is very much possible to build so many option and get a very good OS, Currently we can't get all the OS features but atleast we may get basic features...
Google may acquire the company in order to increase the speed of GooOS..too.. Google may call it as GooUOS. Lets wait and see the progress how it evoloves....
My advice: YouOS not yet met all the requirements for an OS. but still i'm appreciating the effort and the threat given to GooOS through this alpha release... Hats off to WebShaka, Inc.
Stay tuned for the updates on web-based OS...
