Technically possible? Tell me more of what you know...or is it a dream? Yes, it's technically possible. It's probable that this concept will be the basis for a next generation browser/operating system. Consider the implication for sites that depend on ad revenue, whose business model depends upon providing services that generate traffic to the site. The thread has already discussed this implication. The basis for ad dependent sites will be undermined, unless they have a compelling and difficult to reproduce service. I can't imagine many surviving. Content aggregators, such as yahoo, will also have a rough time making it,also. Nothing new in my assertions, or the browser concept.
