Jolicloud OS for netbooks grows up, gets its own interface
Jolicloud is an operating system that’s being designed specifically for netbooks. It’s based on Ubuntu Linux, but it’s really designed to provide quick and easy access to internet based applications like Facebook, Gmail, Skype, and Twitter.
Last time we got a peek at Jolicloud, the operating system looked a lot like Ubuntu Netbook Remix, because the developers borrowed the netbook remix interface and peppered it with desktop icons for web apps. But last night the Jolicloud team posted an image of the operating system’s new user interface on Flickr. As you can see, the OS borrows a few ideas from Xandros Easy Mode, Ubuntu Netbook Remix, and Linpus Linux Lite. It features a number of tabs for categories like games, graphics, internet, and office. And under each tab are a group of icons for desktop or web based programs.
