I tried to look for something similar in IE, but to no avail. I am also with you on the portability of being able to work from anywhere. I have made a few php mysql database web apps and they worked out so well I am considering creating my own management db on the web so that everything is through a web browser. I would say that I am an "advanced beginner" in the use of PHP. To prevent the problem of when you are away on laptop without an internet connection, I do all of my work off a massive external hard drive. I also keep online backups as well, as long as you are organized and have a file/naming convention in place or else it will be hell later! I am with you on Foxmarks!

It will be a start for a more convenient way to utilize your computer to do your everyday tasks more seamlessly. I can't wait... keep up the cool art Rik.

Then we will have thin client computers that are pretty much what a browser is today but may morph into more of a widget platform.You can see the start of it with Apple TV and Windows Media Center. As far as connectivity in Ten years the ability to get on everywhere will be as ubiquitous as using a cell phone.

Like if you had your laptop somewhere and no connection. I know that situations like this are becoming less and less likely, but I know it happens to me frequently since I bring my laptop everywhere. Plus, it wouldn't matter if every app a person uses in online Windows will always suck, but I understand your point. Things should be that way already.

I love it. Actually it powers my links page, but I do like being able categorize bookmarks into folders. Tagging is great but it doesn't have hierarchy. I use del.icio.us all the time. I love it.
