Browser Killer Application - Gimbalz

Web browser UI(User Interface) and features are not designed for WebApps(Web Applications). Synchronization is something which is non-existent among WebApps.



How wonderful it would be if an application provides a cross between an OS and browser features to kill browser usage for accessing and using WebApps.



Gimbalz provides this radical thinking. The best thing is that it doesn't criticize firefox for flaws. Firefox is simply in a different league. So extend firefox into a new breed of application which will address the issues currently faced by WebApps. This would result Gimbalz to be a WebApps platform, presentation and integration system which will give new dimension to WebApps correlation, usage and viewing.

The following is the project summary:



A browser killer application...



Web browser UI is not meant for accessing WebApps...



Web browser doesn't provide synchronization among WebApps...



Gimbalz provides the solution to the above problems and much more...



Gimbalz enables WebApps to dock...synchronization among WebApps thru API...central repository storage option...cutomization...



A small summary of the plan...firefox platform can be reused with essential changes as the model to build a new WebApps friendly UI and docking station...develop an effective WebApp API for better synchronization, control and flexibility...



In a world where the future we all know would be WebApps...we need a platform for WebApps like we had with Linux to tackle proprietary dominance...



Developers plz dont think its not fair to develop for a new platform...docking XUL Apps can be achieved with minimal effort...some of the existing firefox extension can also be reused with little effort...the syncronization among WebApps only will take extra effort for the WebApp developer...but synchronization among WebApps is something which will work wonders...



A seizable community of firefox developers,extension and theme writers do exist...if we can all work together and build Gimbalz...I beleive this would be the beginning of the next war(WebApps)...after the much hyped OS and the browser one...



Lets build the next Linux...
