I don't think you can really overtake the web browser. It has too many functions. You can, however, make something that is better at one particular thing. And that's really where other attempts, such as Flash and Java, have failed: They tried to be too broad, and keep getting broader. If you try to do everything, you end up doing nothing well.
Choose one aspect of the browser, make something better that is simple and narrow, and see where it goes. The kind of applications written for the browser are small and data-driven. Perhaps streaming Tk between client and server would work.
What ever happened to sane usage of cookies where they'd only be set if you did something on the site that initiated a cookie transfer (e.g. logging in, starting a shopping cart, storing your preferences)?
Oh man, remember those good old days? Before every site was covered in AdSense. When MySpace was the glimmer in some nerds eye. Before every moron lip-synced horrible songs on YouTube. When email was used for communication. When people actually used correct English. When Pluto was still a planet.
Something cool is found by the edge-of-hip peoples. Company monitors edge-of-hip peoples to find out what is cool. Company markets the new cool. Edge-of-hip peoples move elsewhere. Company killed cool.
The documentary Merchants of Cool outlines this quiet well (viewable online).
You have got to be kidding me. You can fling a rover somewhere in the direction of Mars and somehow hit it, model how the sun works, and take pictures of the center of the galaxy, but we don't know what will happen when the shuttle moves from one year to the next?

That's pretty much the jist of it. Nothing accounts for every possible situation, not even buzzword methodologies. Do what you think is best.
Well, depth perception generally involves the use of both eyes - that's why we have two.
I thought it was in case you poke one out, you still have a backup.
Those would be technical writers. I'm talking about technology writers, aka journalist washouts.
Why do we need Web 3.0 now?
So tech writers have something to write about.
First a reduce number of launch titles and now this. Sony really knows how to suck the fun out of a console.

I remember!!! Flobble-de-flee!

Remember you'll have other ways to entertain yourself with the PS3 aside from it's multimedia capabilities.
$600 plus frostbite to do what my computer can already do. That's fantastic. Sign me up, sir.
"How To Google Without An Ads"
There's nothing really innovative about it, besides asking for feedback. It's what would have happened in A9 and Google had a baby.

This has to be a cover up of some kind.
