First Look: Jolicloud Alpha 2c
,----[ Quote ]
| Bottom line, Jolicloud deserves all the attention that it's getting right
| now. We don't feel that the social component in its current state will be a
| very useful addition, but if the developers extend it so that it integrates
| with the desktop synchronization functions and other social networking
| websites it may just become a central feature. The all-around optimizations
| make this operating system a real alternative for netbook owners, as they
| work wonders even for those rather old first-generation devices that are
| already starting to appear as pieces of computer history to us.

Which netbook OS is right for you?
,----[ Quote ]
| Under Linux you can easily find and install new products. You donât need to
| go searching for them yourself. Similarly, you can update every application
| as well as Linux itself from the one software update menu. Linux has no need
| for the multitude of âprogram x is going to check for updates nowâ
| run-on-startup memory wasters that plagues Microsoft Windows.
|
| Another reason you ought to consider Linux is its greater security. There is
| absolutely no need to run anti-virus software on Linux. Itâs far more
| resistant to Internet nasties. Some Windows advocates will defend Microsoftâs
| vulnerabilities as a result of mass popularity making it a bigger target.

Hands-on with an alpha of the Jolicloud netbook distro
,----[ Quote ]
| Jolicloud is a Linux-based netbook OS that is built on top of Canonical's

| applications accessible outside of the browser.

Checking out the Jolicloud Netbook OS
,----[ Quote ]
| That may, actually, be exactly what is needed to bring the concepts of Ubuntu
| Netbook Remix to the masses. Itâs too early to tell, but Jolicloud looks like
| it has a chance of being one of the first Linux-based netbook distros to take
| off, if they can get deals with hardware manufacturers.

Hands-On Review Of Jolicloud, The iPhonesque OS For Netbooks
,----[ Quote ]
| Founder and former CEO of Netvibes Tariq Krim is moving forward with his
| ambitious Jolicloud project, looking to build a better operating system for
| web workers with netbooks (or smartbooks or cloud computers, whichever term
| you prefer). A couple of days ago, we got a couple of exclusive screenshots
| from the team, and just a day after the startup started sending out a handful
| of invite codes for early adopters who wanted to get a peak at the alpha
| developer release. I also got hold of one and have been using Jolicloud on my
| Acer Aspire ONE for about four days now. These are my initial findings.
