G.ho.st Virtual Computer, a start up employing both Israeli and Palestiniansdevelopers, is seen as a rare and unique Palestinian-Israeli collaboration that could enhance political and economic dialogue between the two communities.

'[...] Israeli entrepreneur Zvi Schreiber partnered with Palestinian engineers to launch G.ho.st Virtual Computer, a web-based operating system that recreates the attributes of a personal computer's desktop from any computer with an internet connection [...]', British newspaper  The Independent reports, adding that '[...] the company's name refers not only to the virtual computer's ability to float through the boundaries of a physical computer, but also to the G.ho.st team's cross-border collaboration.'

"Our idea is simply to use the internet to give people a computing environment that is not just stored on a physical device, but is available on a web page or any mobile device and gives you everything you need: your desktop, your files, your programs," G.ho.st CEO Schreiber said at the launch, in the West Bank town of Beit Jalla, close to Jerusalem's southern edge.

According to The Independent, the 'international Mideast peace envoy Tony Blair, who attended the launch, commended G.ho.st's initiative and call for more such partnerships across the Israeli-Palestinian divide.'
