First read this (oh, stop complaining, you have plenty of time). Then read this for a good synopsis. Then read this.

Some of this stuff goes hand-in-hand with the Google thread I posted several weeks ago. Interesting stuff, to say the least.

Good links Sage. 👍

Heh, I have a GMail account. I love it. But it surely feels like a beta, seems like it's missing afew things.

Thats Very Interesting.
but web based apps wont outdo anything you can do on a pc normaly for a long time (eg. playing half-life with wsad keys and console commands)

I read about it not long back. Interesting to say the least. 👍

Yep. I've got like 20 e-mails and it still says I'm only using 0% of my space.

Both the first (long) api article and the last Google blog are good reading.. I've never thought of Google that way, but the api thingy I've seen coming for a long time now... (I work that stuff )

Cheers, and thanks for the reads (and headache )

No prob. Just figured it'd interest at least a couple people here.
