Ya, this is the grand plan behind Gimmie, basically... In the near-term future Gmail, Basecamp, Wikipedia, etc will show up in Gimmie's Applications when you browse to them. This makes them easier to switch to in the midst of other tasks, and allows for bookmarking. Presenting an icon you can manipulate grants these webapps the ability to be "installed" if you use them a lot, using DND or copy/paste, or some other mechanism. And just browsing to their URLs gets an entry added to recently used, so you can find them again later. In the long term some standardized phishing-proof solution will have to be developed to allow URL content to describe themselves as part of an application, and point to it's metadata. Also, Gimmie will extend a bit beyond just applications, into documents and people, in that opened Friendster homepages or Facebook profiles will be represented as People objects that you can perform similar actions upon.
Cool. Do you anticipate this is something some excited ephy people could help out with? :) Luis _______________________________________________ epiphany-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/epiphany-list
