Death of DESKTOP

We're close to the Death of the Desktop. If we can have online compilers, we can have all the softwares online. The entire program, with all its features. The User Interfaces are actually better. They're mostly free. They don't require updates.
That one thought is enough to get you ' thinking—will everything be done online? Here's a simple Thought: we have thin clients and centralised servers—so what about the Net being: one large, all-serving server? Not literally, but come to think of it, if there were a Google OS couldn't that be a server for all our computers as thin clients?
So let's see what we do on our computers, we have an OS. we have a hard disk, and we run software. That's about it. All of it could be shifted online in theory.

Just think, you carry a basic OS on a thumb drive and plug it into any of these standardised "con¬necting devices." And data online - Free for basic use, paid for heavy use.
With your hard disk gone, where have your movies gone? Think YouTube. Where have your pictures gone? Think Flickr. And on, and on.
