eyeOS

Various authors, Oct 05, 2005

The idea of the internet as platform is a hard one to grasp, but one application that helps point the way is the eyeOS, the internet operating system. Basically, it's your computer desktop delivered from a remote site. I've set up an instance of eyeOS on my own site - downes.ca/eyeos (Userid: Demo password: demo ). You'll find it's a bit slow and not especially useful - but that's not the point. In a similar vein, have a look at Ning, a way to connect your various services around the internet. This is Web 2.0 in action.
