There is a growing category of web-based operating systems allowing a user to access a ‘desktop’ from any computer with an internet connection and a browser. Goowy is in a beta stage but offers a slick layout and a load of functionality. Check your email, upload files, play games, choose your own wallpaper, IM your buddies and the list goes on. It’s slow to load on my dial up connection, but I’m sure it glides right along on a DSL connection. Give it a try at goowy.com
