High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Workspot was the first GNU/Linux desktop Web Service, i.e. it provided Open Source personal computing without computer ownership. Launched in 1999, it was the first application service to make use of Virtual Network Computing. Workspot also hosted a free Linux Desktop demo using VNC: 'one-click to GNU/Linux'. It eventually began to charge for a remote, web-accessible, persistent desktop, and several desktop collaboration features. Workspot won Linux Journal's Best Web Application award for 2000. It is currently not active.
