Jolicloud is an internet based operating system similar to Google Chrome OS. The company (by the same name) also markets a laptop (Netbook) called Jolibook which runs Jolicloud OS. 
Underneath, Jolicloud OS is powered by a Linux kernel. Now the company has drawn out a plan of making its apps accessible to a broader set of computer users. The idea is to synchronize the Jolicloud user interface to the cloud so your desktop would be accessible from anywhere, just by using a Web browser.
With that in mind, and to avoid confusion, the company has renamed its OS from Jolicloud to 'Joli OS'. More over, the Jolicloud web app will be made available on a variety of platforms including Chrome web store, Firefox 4, Safari 5, iPad, and Android.
