Jolicloud 1.0 Has an HTML5 UI

kai_hiwatari writes "Jolicloud 1.0, a Linux based OS for netbooks, was launched a few days back. In this new release, the developers have completely replaced the old interface based on Ubuntu Netbook Remix in favor of a new one based on HTML5. Jolicloud 1.0 also features a new syncing feature using which you can sync installed applications across all your systems running on Jolicloud. Other interesting features includes new app center, social stream, etc."

    Cloud html5 app syncing is great, but I'm curious if they've got 4g back compatible web 3.0 blueface interballs technology for the kind of futureproof idevice demands the superuser of yestermorrow is sure to be told he needs.

    Now the kicker, does it run beowulf? Last time I tried to stync my grendel module .99x was torn to pieces before the crowdsourced beta swarm could move to India.

      Meh, when they make the whole UI in Adobe Flash, it will be truely synergistically interfaced.

    But I was more drawing attention to overuse of the cloud term.

    "Jolicloud" is not a good high-tech name.

    It makes me think of the scene in an old B-movie (Flashdance) where a very creepy and perverted character coos "It's tres jolie, Coco! Tres jolie!" to a young woman he hires for what she thinks is a photo shoot but is really an excuse for him to masturbate.

    Well, maybe it's not such a bad name for a Linux distro, after all.

    BAHAHA. Few things are as satisfying as seeing a spelling/grammar nazi fuck up his own smartass correction.

    feel free to tell your friends at Jolicloud that they can come by and scoop up what's left.

    Oh come on Steve, we know there's nothing left!

    Even steaming pile as big as yours aren't enough to make Vista and 7.

    Don't worry, as a linguist, I can only hang out with other linguists, anyway. We've scared/bored all the other people away. ;-)

    Having cloud in the name synergisticaly enhances perceived brand value.
