pupsipu, if you'd bothered to read my initial post, you'd see that i said nothing of 'reinventing the internet' - in fact explicitly stating that this is how things were originally supposed to be.
We're all quite aware that, technically, this is all old hat - that's obviously beyond dispute. The point is that, what you deride as being a 'small UI change' could, in fact, be one of the first faltering steps in making the browser (which is, let's face it, the sum total of many consumers' internet experience) a production platform in itself, not just a dumb reader.
You seem to not really try to connect the dots - any first step, such as this, necessarily needs to be tied into the home user's computer - that's where all her files are. But you'd have to be a nugget to imagine that's the end - of course, ultimately, these things could be tied in to remote cloud storage - but why complicate things from the off?
No one's saying this shift, via this particular platform, is necessarily some massive game changer. But you can bet your bottom dollar that Google, Microsoft & Mozilla are looking on and wondering where they can take things next.
Stick to your sodding little pixel permutations - your imagination seems mired in a 5x5 pixel grid.
- 1. reinventing the internet is in their slogan. 2. I don't make any pixel grids. 3. Opera says it's a game changerPupsipu
- what would be a game changer is if this stuff integrated with the cloud right now, as is, it's a UI changePupsipu
- in ur first post, the internet was originally organized so everyone was a server, but now it's better.Pupsipu
- because your computer can be a server or not, and there are always on servers too.Pupsipu
