[edit] History
TransMedia was founded by Donald Leka in September 2001. He began to develop a cloud computing system which could manage media across computers. The product’s focus shifted from business clients to consumers, and Glide was launched in December 2005.[3]
The current version of Glide, version 3.0, was released on May 20, 2008.[4]
Intel recently announced plans to include Glide on ultra-mobile PCs.[5]
[edit] Features
Glide features a desktop-like interface which displays the Desktop, Glide HD, and Web Portal. Glide includes several web-based applications, including an integrated office suite, media player, photo editor, calendar software and webmail.[6]
