Jolicloud Me, growing fast!

Hello Joliclouders,

It’s an exciting time here at Jolicloud — and we’d love to share with you some of the happy events and milestones reached over the past few weeks.

So, what’s new? After months of testing and tweaking, we arrived at the London Web Summit where we launched the new Jolicloud: a stand-alone service called Jolicloud Me. If you haven’t jumped in yet, request your invite here!

In case you missed it, you can head on over to our previous blog post or watch Tariq make the announcement here.

Let’s talk milestones. One week after the launch, the Jolicloud Me community hit the 100,000 mark! We want to say a big thank you to everyone who registered.

We’ve also started adding to the services that Jolicloud Me supports. One of the platforms you wanted to see was Tumblr — so we got straight on it and made it happen. Now we can index and organize your Tumblr content (posts and likes) in your personal cloud, for you.

Since Jolicloud Me is all about having your personal cloud with you anytime and anywhere, we are now focusing on getting the mobile apps ready for public launch. In fact, we’ve already submitted the iPhone app to the App Store for review.

More of an Android kinda person? Well, good news — the Android app sneak preview is currently being tested by some of our users, more on this very soon.

Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook for more exciting news!

Enjoy!

Introducing Jolicloud Me

March 19th, 2012

After months of private testing, we have decided to launch the new Jolicloud as a standalone product:

Jolicloud Me, a new addition to the Jolicloud family.

Meet Jolicloud Me. Your Personal Cloud.

As a Jolicloud user, you now have access to a complete set of Jolicloud services, simplifying your life in the cloud, from your desktop and mobile devices:

Jolicloud Me indexes all the items in your personal cloud, making them easily searchable and accessible from anywhere. Jolicloud Me is available on the Web, iPhone and Android.

Jolicloud Desktop is your personal cloud desktop, which allows you to access all your favorite apps from any HTML5 device or browser.

Joli OS provides a simple and free computing solution built around Jolicloud Desktop.

Crafting Jolicloud Me was more complex than we initially thought, so invites rolled out slower than expected. You’ll be happy to know that we’ve picked up launching the invites at a much faster pace as of today.

To receive an invitation for Jolicloud Me you need to register here. If you are already registered and just can’t wait, ping us on Twitter @jolicloud and provide your Jolicloud username alongside the #jolicloudme hashtag. We’ll make sure you’ll be enjoying Jolicloud Me in no time.

2012, The Year of the Cloud

Happy New Year and welcome to the new Jolicloud!

I am very excited to introduce the new Jolicloud which has been in development since last summer. With the new Jolicloud we are still pursuing the same idea: to combine the infinite power of the cloud with the most simple and elegant user interface.

With Joli OS, we’ve already made 750 000 low cost computers look cooler and better connected to the cloud. With Jolicloud we introduced the first consumer platform designed for the cloud, with a portable desktop and more than 1500 free webapps.

But with the success of mobile devices and the increasing amount of data we produce in the cloud, there was an opportunity to create the perfect platform to manage your digital life.

The new Jolicloud wants to be the home for your most precious content and help you decide what matters and who can access your online content. Because we are platform and service agnostic we can provide the best and most useful experience for the user. The new Jolicloud will keep all the features that you loved from the previous version: quick access to your favorite apps, access to Dropbox and Google Docs.

Here are the new features available:

Discover what you own.

Jolicloud automatically finds and organizes your content from Facebook, Flickr, Instagram, Picasa and Twitter and more than 80 other types of services, to create your personal cloud.

Keep what you love.

Collections are the best way to save and quickly access what matters.

As you can see the desktop user interface has been entirely redesigned. It’s gorgeous and more powerful than ever. Everything is there: your apps, your content, your collections. In short everything that matters.

Share what you want.

As you will discover, Jolicloud is the easiest way to share anything from any service with your close friends. From Web to mobile, iPhone to Android, just focus on what you want to share.

The transition plan to the new Jolicloud

We will migrate Web users first and push the new interface to Joli OS users when we leave the beta stage. In the meantime, there will be a quick access to the new user interface in the Joli OS desktop.

At the same time we will introduce the iPhone and Android apps to bring the Jolicloud experience to all of your devices.

We can’t wait to hear your feedback and suggestions about the new product.
With the number of requests to test the beta exceeding 70 000 people, we ask you to forgive us if you are not upgraded right away. We want to provide the best quality of service to everyone.

2012 is the year of the cloud. Let’s make it easy and fun for everyone!
Oh, and if you haven’t already registered for our beta, please sign up here.
Enjoy!
