There is a movement within the Jolicloud group that needs to separate between the App of Jolicloud and the OS. The separation lead to the new branding of the OS as Joli OS, and the Chrome app will remain Jolicloud.
Some more news is that there will be an iPad and Android app to include Jolicloud, so no matter if you are on a netbook, old computer that was brought back to life with Joli OS, a tablet, or a phone, you can always get to your easy & simple Jolicloud dashboard to get to apps, favorites, and others.

The folks are Jolicloud are never going to quit because 1.0 & 1.1 were done. They’re off for 1.2. And they posted this on their official Flickr page:
I’ve used Jolicloud 1.1 for a few days now and like what I’ve seen so far:
Pros:
Cons:
Again, only a few days, and this is what I’ve seen during the install & use of Jolicloud 1.1 on a stock Dell Mini 9.
Overall, I’m happy with my Jolicloud 1.1 experience. YouTube clips are watchable, even the Hulu app on Low video is enough to watch a show on. I wish I could add Rhythmbox to the launcher, I have to go through 1 more click than I’d like.
Also, I like that I can rearrange the launcher items, but sometimes it takes a while to move from screen three to one – maybe some area where I can have them all on one screen to organize. Also, could I label some for Internet, or Social, Music, etc. that would be cool too.
Don’t forgot to follow me within Jolicloud – ‘Jeff Jolionmini.com’ Just search for JoliOnMini and it’ll bring me up – love checking out others recently added apps to see if there’s anything I’d like too.
Have any other ideas for Jolicloud or any questions, use the comments below or our forums…
Good Luck Joliclouding!
I re-did my Dell Mini 9 and put a fresh copy of Jolicloud 1.1 on it. Others have tried the upgrade path provided by Jolicloud. Many of those have had issues.
Have you had issues with your upgrade to 1.1? Post comments or use our Forums – we can try to help too.
We had some issues before with Jolicloud packages not updating properly. Use of the command line usually helps. We also talked about a few fixes before, check this out, see if it helps!
Jolicloud users who want to upgrade their systems from 1.0 to latest 1.1 release now have a simple upgrade path available.
The Official Jolicloud Blog describes in detail how to do the upgrade!
Update:
Since GMA 500 support is not completed, I would recommend holding off on your upgrade if you have a Dell Mini 12 
Should be done shortly…
The much anticipated Jolicloud 1.1 download is now available.
Please get it at www.jolicloud.com/download
We’ll have much more on Jolicloud 1.1 as we get a chance to play with the new iso.
I’ll be installing it on the Dell Mini 9, and let you know the experiences!!
