YouOS: one of the first and most widely known WebOSs.
Other great WebOSs such as Desktoptwo and goowy require Adobe Flash. Flash is not included in cl33n. We'd love to include Flash in cl33n but there are some licensing hurdles that we need to overcome first. However you can install Flash via Firefox's automatic installer whenever you want to use Flash.
