Ghost - My free virtual computer

Have you ever tried or used Ghost ?

G.ho.st offers every person in the world a free Virtual Computer (VC). G.ho.st is simply pronounced "ghost", an acronym of Global hosted operating system. The G.ho.st Virtual Computer includes almost everything you would have in a physical computer - a desktop, file storage (like a disk drive) and applications.

G.ho.st frees you from being tied to any one physical device - and frees you from the worries of installing software, backing up, and other administration.

"G.ho.st Lite" is a lightweight user interface to access VC using Mobile phones, an embedded widget in another web site like iGoogle and from a very old computer or dial-up connection.

Visit their home page to check out list of key features and services.

I would say good use of cloud computing powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) and solutions from RightScale Technologies.
