To Jooce or not to Jooce?

Every day more than 500 million people access the internet at cybercafe’s world wide. For most of these people this is the only PC they will ever use.

Data storage costs are extremely high for most of us and lets face it having to carry around DVD’s, CD’s and memory sticks gets frustrating and annoying to say the least.

Now a Luxembourg-baste startup is giving us access to the unheard of “unlimited online storage”.

Founded by Stefan Surzyck “Jooce” offers us the functionality we would normally get from a personal computer, the difference is that we do not need to own a PC. The “Jooce desktop” can be accessed from any internet connected PC, thus allowing us to access files, e-mail’s, instant messaging, storage and other applications via the internet from any location on earth.

Jooce is just one of many companies which now offers this “web-based operating system” so the question that comes to mind is who to support?

During its first week of operation Jooce saw 60 000 sign-ups, not only does it have the user numbers behind it, Jooce is also backed by Mangrove VC, the same firm that provided initial funding to Skype and with free unlimited data storage Jooce certainly looks like the best horse to back.

fringsters if you are in desperate need of some free, safe and easy to use parking for your data then this is a great place to start. Go get your account while its still free.
