Hello HN,<p>We've just been turned down by YCombinator (2 visits to our demo & video) and because they don't give feedback I'm here to ask you guys what do you think about our project:<p>weeZeel is a Social Web OS. It’s a website written in HTML5 and JavaScript (using jQuery) that takes the concept of a traditional Operating System to the cloud.<p>We have created a web desktop for everyone to use as their computer. They can edit documents, watch movies, play games… using our apps or any other app available in weeZeel Store, where anyone can sell an app developed using our API, with the feature of being 100% social. All these apps have the ability to work on real time thanks to websockets.<p>And because weeZeel is social, you can share all the files and folders you want with your contacts with one single click and you can interact with them in any app.<p>If you want to try our demo (still work to be done) just use this url: http://www.weezeel.com/demo.php
-Who's your target audience?
-Why would someone want to use weeZeel?<p>I'm having a hard time trying to understand the benefit of something like weeZeel. It may be that I'm just not your target audience.
By the way, a designer has joined our team and has made this design:<p><a href="http://www.weezeel.com/test.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.weezeel.com/test.jpg</a>

What makes this different than the other "Web OS" projects that have been done before? There's been quite a few, and no one seems to want them.<p>Isn't the Web OS the browser? Why should we add another layer (your-app)?<p>What is the value-add?
Sounds cool! :) And definitely not something easy to build. But why are you building this, why would someone want a web desktop? What problem are you trying to solve? <friendly and curious questions>
Congratulations on multiple views.<p>Who are potential users?<p>How will it be monetized?<p>How will it compete with GooglePlus, Docs, and Gmail?<p>Good luck.
