This is Bill Gates worst nightmare, encoutering the G.ho.st. I hope Microsoft won’t close their windows.

G.ho.st®

Totally cloud computing. I already made an entry about this useful web-based service from the Ghost Inc before. A brochure of G.ho.st® VC we’ve found during the iBlog5 reminded me of this service which I have found 1 or 2 years ago. I am not sure if G.ho.st already had marketing campaigns in Manila- the brochure looks informative, unfortunately we only found 1pc, so my companion during iBlog5 took it since I already know about the service. Ever since, I really loved the idea of having my desktop accessible anywhere, but not using a software to show my PC desktop even if I’m away from home. Remote access and desktop control software are just unsafe from unauthorized access or maybe no one could turn on and connect my PC online, while a PC is vulnerable from disaster.

Here comes G.ho.st (Global Hosted Operating SysTem), a virtual computer easily accessible to any browser with an internet connection, it is simply pronounced as ghost, (a disembodied soul, to appear to the living in bodily likeness- merriam-webster) which haunts Microsoft to death. I’ve just read from an article how Microsoft might have been threatened by these web-based applications already available online, which makes the computer-giant  uneasy.

I came up with this campaign inspired by The Hunger Site cause. But unlike the buttons on The Hunger Site homepage which an individual must click to contribute to the cause, as a blogger I would like to make use of my blogsite as an instrument for other bloggers, visitors and myself to DO something for this cause. I do not intend to replace The Hunger Site but giving my readers, and those who are already supporting The Hunger Site, the opportunity to make the reach of the help to more people everyday.

How can I help?
