Rudy Re "the browser itself becomes just one of many possible windows into this messaging infrastructure, and a more and more trivial one at that. "

I disagree. I think the browser has proved to be the ultimate
user-interface. All other other windows are trivial compared
to the browser IMHO.

This is the only application/interface that millions of people have learned and mastered with no help at all.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Microsoft realized that the browser was a better interface than Windows and that's why they've tried to integrate the browser with the OS.

At some point in the future the browser will become the interface to the OS (and then, as NOISE etc hope, the OS itself becomes irrelevant).

I'm sure you've heard this argument many times. Do you think its
going to come about?
