The Web Browser's Operating System
Introducing BrowzOS, an open-source project to create a full-fledged, online operating system (well, a sort of simulated operating system); the goal of this project is to give BrowzOS the ability to manipulate files & folders on a client and/or server computer's hard drive from within a web browser instead of using the client's currently installed programs, as well as to encourage programmers to create online applets (be they in any scripting language, Flash, Shockwave, Java, etc.) with the ability to function as such. In spite of this, anyone is free to use BrowzOS for any purpose, including the creation of applets that do NOT have client (or server) computer file access.
