still Chrome has a purpose to push away people from desktop programs to 
WebApps, because of all the advertisement, marketing and tracking possibilities 
WebApps give to the companies, especially Google. WebApps also meansdata is not 
stored locally, but remotely.Not to mention Chrome sends your history to 
Googleservers when you log in into Google Account(Gmail, Youtube).I know some 
people can write open-source WebAppsand host them on their private servers or 
at leastpaid VPSes, but how many?
