DeskTopTwo
Another crack at a web based Desktop called DeskTopTwo. This one is entirely Flash based. It is blocked from the "corp "network though.

This DeskTopTwo, along with the ThinkFree Office site that you posted earlier, make me wonder when all these web-based apps will finally be fast and full-featured enough to be indistinguishable from current desktop apps.
Technologies like Google Gears, Adobe AIR, and Microsoft Silverlight are already making the experience more seamless, and browser frameworks like WebKit are starting to allow web apps to tap into the graphics and storage hardware on the local machine with new tags and native JS functions.
I've already seen online desktops, e-mail apps, office suites, games, and even photo/video editors. If this is the future, then we need to get in on some of this action!
I just tried to use the desktop two thing and it's pretty neat. There is another company ulteo that I ran into that has openoffice online and is working on a full featured desktop. I assume that it will be more explicitly linux. The creator of ulteo is also one of the founder(?) of mandriva but is no longer with them.
I was hoping to be cool and post a blog/comment from desktop two but wasn't able to find the web browser application .
I just tried Desktoptwo. Very cool and very useful. I as able to publish a blog, btw, as they have their own blogging feature (you can choose from 2 different domain names). Very nice feature and it's apparently still in beta. I was able to access it though my company computer also. I like this one. Very cool interface as well.
