An interesting tool, but perhaps it requires a bit too much work on the part
of the user -- or I just didn't get it (which is normally the case).

In the Java camp, I think that people will soon learn what they can really
do in terms of applets.  What it takes is a current JVM, since they contain
applet caching.  This will greatly improve the performance of applets
because you don't have the download time each time the you launch the
applet.  Also, bandwidth continues to increase, and that with the caching of
applets with a more powerful mechanism than the simplistic sandbox model for
security and I think you'll see applets take on a bigger role.  Of course,
that assumes that people one day have a JDK1.2.x JVM loaded in their
browsers for a change.
