Google Plans the gDisk, Me Happy

If I tell you that in a few years almost all our applications will be web-based I am sure not many would believe me, because we like rock solid things. The best example that we're on a path to web-computing is the GoogleDisk or gDisk that the Mountain View guys are working on, to deliver in the next few months.

 

They already have Gmail that gives more and more storage space, GoogleDocuments to read or write your documents, but gDisk is about something else. It's a service that allows you to keep everything you need, songs, videos, important documents and so on, and you can access them simply by using your password. The best thing is it should be free.

Google declined to comment about gDisk but said that "storage is an important component of making Web [applications] fit easily into consumers' and business users' lives" and from what I know they already offer paid services if you're interested, but offering it for free would only make a better know of their services and would deliver more advertising.

Looking forward for this one. How about you?

Been waiting for this googledisk for quite some time. Storage, applications/software online -- looks like Ellison was on the right track.

Not that I don't think web-based applications and storage are a good idea, but I just don't think they will actually form an operating system. Not everyone has a fast internet connection, and having the whole OS online massively slows down any sort of use, a large step back. I do think that Google will eventually replace Office though.
