Hi Natan,
I felt it would be convenient to not have to load a browser to do things I want to have access to all the time. I think that putting stuff online is such a common task for everyone now that I ask myself why shouldn't these features be accessible from widgets/panel applets/the shell? One example of something already existing along these lines is updating my IM status from the Ubuntu panel. To be honest, I really couldn't be bothered blogging if it isn't easy and accessible in as few clicks as possible... I want the desktop to give me access to the cloud. Am I lazy, or typical?

What type of further integration would you like to see and why would it be better than just using a browser?

The notion I'm proposing is that the shell becomes the access point to these external services. Is there error in my view?
