Anyone here of this before? I caught it on an episode of AOTS and decided to check it out... pretty interesting. The most important of which is probably the 15GB of online storage you get which you can access anywhere. Plenty of hook-ins to Web 2.0 and other services. Lots of free apps already designed.

G.ho.st ("ghost") is a free "Virtual Computer" in a web page. I'm using it to get to my desktop, files and apps from any computer and my mobile phone. If you use it too we can share files and chat.

Im pretty sure the Google OS is based on this same concept. Sounds neat though.

Re Google OS: not really. It's more an extension of the dumb terminal concept. Basically, if all of your data and applications live in the cloud, then your operating system doesn't need rich functionality.
