I’ve Been Plagiarised!
I guess I’ll take it as a compliment? I commented on their post that it’s wrong to steal like that without as least linking or giving credit, but my comment was deleted.

The First WebOS
Whoa. It’s here and it’s not from Google. There’s a startup called YouOS that’s currently in alpha. In fact, it’s really even younger than alpha, alpha alpha perhaps? You can register for an account and test it out yourself at YouOS.com. After logging in, your browser window becomes a desktop, complete with links and/or windows for email, chat, document creation, sticky notes, web surfing, RSS, file storage, along with some flickr and YouTube integration, as well. While waiting for the YouOS desktop to load, you are presented with a silly quote, like "Nothing in the world is friendlier than a wet dog," which hints at the age of the YouOS creators - four young college grads. The YouOS website is slow, but don’t complain about that - if anything, this is more of a proof-of-concept, than a reliable, working product you’re going to start using on a regular basis.
But now imagine a Google acquisition of YouOS…hmmm…
Keep an eye on this one, folks.
YouOS blog…here.
