Hi Maciej, Thanks for your comments. > > What does constitute single app?
It's up to the user as she will be able to "applify" any website. A lot of sites offer more than just data visualization, and have strong behaviour logic (whether on the client- or server-side, that doesn't really matter). But I'd say the criterias for "real" apps apply here too: An application is a tool helping in the realization of a certain task by automatizing...blablabla... :) GMail, Bugzilla, Identica, Twitter, Google Docs, Horde Mail, Last.fm and so many more appear to me as good candidates. > And as person who have 5-50 tabs opened at the same time - won't it > clutter interface? > Apps could be tabbed (or whatever comes from the discution thread) too: all your Bugzilla opened pages would be grouped in one application for example. That would actually make switching to a specific bug: alt-tab (or overview) to your Bugzilla application, then find the corresponding tab, instead of looking in a crazy long tabs' notebook in the browser (not mentioning the searched tab might not be visible at first). > I would disagree. The tabbing is additional to windows not a substitute. A needed complimentary in current desktops, we agree here.

Yup, but if you think in term of apps, instead of website, you can spread them on different topic-orented workspaces, for example: - GMail and Twitter *applications* in your communication one, neighbours to Empathy - LiveJournal and/or b.g.o applications in a "Blogging" workspace - Google Docs and LibreOffice on office - you get the idea Again, each of those apps can be tabbed (or windows grouped or whatever) _______________________________________________ epiphany-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/epiphany-list
