Run Linux in Gmail

Yes you read right. It’s possible to install linux on Gmail. Richard Jones wrote some python that allows you to mount linux within gmail called GmailFS, which provides a mountable Linux filesystem. GmailFS supports most file operations such as read, write, open, close, stat, symlink, link, unlink, truncate and rename. This means that you can use all your favourite unix command line tools to operate on files stored on Gmail (e.g. cp, ls, mv, rm, ln, grep etc. etc.).
It’s an ongoing project in development but it’s look very cool and allows you basically a 2gb virtual drive. You’ll need to have libgmail and FUSE on hand to make it work properly. Libgmail communicates with gmail while FUSE provides the filesystem. Give it a shot, it looks like it’s progressing very nicely.
