While the world watched in rapturous awe at the happenings that took place a few days ago at the Apple WWDC, earlier this month Google held its own developers conference for the first time. The Google I/O conference, held in San Francisco, had one clear message - forget the desktop, the "Cloud" is where it's at and the Web is the new platform for application development. It's already a $1 billion market and growing fast.

An alternative title for this article was polluting the world, one program at a time but that's not fair. There's plenty of good software being developed that isn't a wasteful source of greenhouse gases, it just generally doesn't sit on the desktop anymore.

First through the Eee PC and now through its PC motherboards, Asus is rapidly carving a global reputation for itself as the company which knows how to take Linux mainstream. The question is will including the minimalist cut-down version of Linux called Splashtop on a million motherboards a month finally bring on the Linux desktop age or has it made the desktop redundant?

I still begrudgingly use Vista, even after making the mistake of retrograding my system to the monumental stuff-up called SP1. I still use Word and Excel 2007, although there are free alternatives that tempt me. However, I dropped Outlook months ago because it's an unacceptable resources drain. Can a new plug-in called Xobni change my mind?

This is all very interesting. Google Gears now enables users to take Google Docs documents out of the cloud and save them locally for later offline use and we're promised Spreadsheets are next.
