In recent days a new idea was appeared: gOS. A kind of linux. For new computer users it is very helpful idea. Its main property is placing some web sites which are used much on the desktop as they are a program, and its aim is to be easy, useful, and online.
The other idea is online operation systems such as; YouOS, eyeOS. First you open a website then the windows on it.
Moreover there are some online office applications too.
We are placing on the internet step by step, and I want to help these ideas with my definition of a new idea of an operation system:
Think of a new computer. Not an expensive or a very fast computer, because of the operation system inside. When opened, its seen that there are icons, start menu, … But these items are items of a web site as in YouOs.
(It is more developed than a web site. On an online operation system when you clicked a folder, the site send you the information about the shape, color, what is inside of the folder which will be opened. But in this system only sending information about what is inside the folder is enough to open a folder, so this system is better than the others.)
What advantages this has? ▼
- Because nearly all of the process are completed on servers, the computer does not have to be so fast, and cheap processors can give better result. This leads to better performance on portable computers.
- Thinking that you are in a friend’s home, in an internet cafe, or in office. When you write you personal account’s information to the computer, your pc stands in front of you.
- You became safer. Your server is not only operating an antivirus program, but also backing up your files to be reliable.
- You buy a computer program (like photoshop) online. After buying, without having a cd, dvd, or any setup files, you click to add a new program, and select photoshop, then write your licence number which is given you while buying, then program is available to start.
- You buy a legal mp3. While buying, the site asks you some information about your account, after buying finished you can see your mp3 in your media player with its information about compositor, singer, year, … And this afflicts illegal mp3s.
- When there is a need to share a file with a friend, you click sharing properties of the file and select your friend as the person whom the file will be shared. Moreover, by using these properties, you can make the file an item of a sharing web like emule.
- While you are downloading a big file, if you are downloading it to your virtual disk located on your server, also you close your computer, it continues. If you are downloading it to your local disk, and you close your computer, it continues downloading to virtual disk then, when you open your computer these part are combined.
- Uploading a file located on virtual disk is easier, because it is on located on the web, only it will placed to destination.
- You don’t need to spend your time to update your system or install some applications that some programs require. This is the responsibility of your server.
- If you need a program which is not produced to work on this operation system, by clicking the program to start it automatically runs by virtualizing.
- Think about a problem; you do not have an internet connection. Do not the computer work? Yes it works. Like the internet explorers, it automatically saves your mostly used applications, and files to local computer and it helps you work. Moreover,having an ability to working offline provides a little more speed.
- Abandoning the routines is not an easy thing. I mean giving up windows. So there can be an opportunity that using it as a website like YouOS, or a computer program for Windows/Mac to take these advantages. Moreover it can be good to have an option on office applications to save the file to this computer account by entering user ID information.
- A very important other thing is to provide its people’s rights, all governments must have their own servers.
Today it does not seem that internet connection speed is so fast to progress this easily, but it seems that in the future it will be. And this idea seems good to be operated.
