Have you thought much about what Operating System your little geeklet will be using in 10 or 20 years?
Are you resigned to the fact they’ll be running Windows v199.1 or have you begun to teach them to modify Linux to meet their computing needs already?
When I watch my children engage with computers and technology, and see how fluid their adaptation is and how comfortable they are switching from different interfaces and games, I feel I get a glimpse of future technology that I may not fully understand my brain, born into the late 1970s won’t be able to comprehend some of the ideas that their brains circa early 2000s will.
With that thought out there, here is a group trying to establish a new OS for release later this year called “Its me”. The “Its me” OS is open source and claims to be focusing of creating a system that better supports the user to GTD. The GTD phenomena is all over tech and productivity driven websites like a rash, so why not try and build an OS around the system.
The system is built on a "stories and venues" concept and then aims to provide a whole new PC to accompany the system.
A beta hasn’t been officially launched yet, but the developers are looking to share. They are looking for anyone interested in supporting the development of the system which they are promoting through their “Come and design Itsme with us” campaign.
