I spent a few hours working on this, and when I was done, I realized the concept was not just an application, but almost a platform - a small hint at <a href="http://www.kottke.org/05/08/googleos-webos">the mythical web-as-operating-system</a>. Microformats act as the documents, CSS handles the visual style, and JavaScript acts as the applications. The only important thing missing is the ability to save edited documents, but <a href="http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-discuss/2005-October/001112.html">Mark Pilgrim is already working on using Atom for that</a>. I'll be very interested to see how this all materializes.</p><p><a href="http://typewriting.org/2005/10/24/Web_OS/#comments">Comment</a></p> Mon, 24 Oct 2005 20:32:23 -0700 http://typewriting.org/2005/10/24/Web_OS/
