>From what I could see, the platform seems capable of a lot but they need a
lot of robots and widgets and such to be written around it. I like that
current trends are to at least have service API's, although it could get
confusing to normal users if there are a dozen or more audio and video
conferencing widgets all competing for attention, almost like trying to find
the best package for something in Linux/FOSS land :)
The map widget is nice enough, but I want a widget for the live/bing maps,
so I can arrange their birds-eye views next to google street views, etc.
Could be a good platform, tastes a little like a stock drupal :) The
config panel for it is a "node" just like everything is a node or whatever
their paradigm is....
which has all its benefits of course, but leaves that aftertaste of
object-oriented-abuse =P
