You can see the cloud component of Slacko here
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=566398#566398

It is activated from Slickpet
'Popular pets'

In other words it is an optional feature.
Don't like Cloud or social networking. Fine. Cool

This is for those who wish to drag Twitter and Facebook
and Gmail onto the desktop and pretend they have friends . . . Rolling Eyes

Once you have clicked and downloaded Cloud
Click on the cloud icon (yes you want it on the desktop)
Then right click on an icon and select 'look inside'

You will see setting up a cloud component is quite straight forward

Can we set up some more? Cool

Actually Lobster.. the title of your thread is kind of misleading (not your fault) as the "cloud" app should run in any puppy where ROX-Filer is installed. I made it with all puppies in mind.

The app <-- http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/puppylinux/pet_packages-slacko/cloud-0.1.pet 19.3K

However you are right that creating new "icons" for this cloud app is easy.. and if you want it on the desktop just drag'n'drop.

So for us how don't have FaceBook or such friends what is the Cloud for?
Are not clouds very dependent on somebody providing servers to have the cloud on? I guess I am very dense today
