WebOs: The web based Operating Systems (part I)

I have made some research over the net for the last months and it seems that we are in the beginnings of the next phase on this new software paradigm that will brings to life new domain problems to be solved, but yes, all of them are far away to be solved right now.

The story begins decades ago where the webOs was a local research leaded by Berkley University, for the next couple of years a large research at Duke University was performed and then concluded with the basement for the “Operating System for wide-area applications”, and the arquitectural model.

Well, Times goes by and this idea has changed definitely with the power of ajax and the new “social networking thing”(web2.0? 3.0??) , so nowadays we can see many initiatives showing us great web applications with webOs architectural models in a yet young marketplace hence with a big bet and founds for whereas the information will be in the near future.
Last week I have begin reviewing available options as alpha or beta versions, so in the next days I will be publishing this articles as posts, stay tuned : )
