I was wondering why Ubuntu wouldn't be able to integrate with eyeOS, YouOS, G.ho.st, Desktop Two..... Browser OS... or any other webbased OS.
It would only need some people to be willing to host few hundred gb for people and have their bandwidth clogged up all the time... like.. later time problem :)
My vision was something in the general direction at this:
You can use your Ubuntu like you normally do now. But are able to upload your documents on your webUbuntu.
WebUbuntu would be like YouOS where you just log in from your browser to your desktop (or that is how it would look like to people).
So I guess it could be viewed as a backup system which you can access and work on from any given location that has internet access and good connection.
I know you could have your computer always on at home and just use remote desktop.. if the computer that you are going to be using has required software for it.
But that is the point. At my university I cannot access my data I use for classes unless I send them via E-mail. And that isn't the best way because the software I am developing for school doesn't run without help (if at all) at my university's computers.
I was supposed to have a briefing about my prototype, but I wasn't able to show the prototype so I had to rely on low-fi (paper prototype) from pdf files. I would really just want to log into my webUbuntu and be able to do everything from there like at home without any fuss at all.
Does anyone like that idea and want to improve it?
