Make it a BMW and I'll build you the best damned app ever. Any way you want to lend me one to prototype out my application? This banter is of course appropriate, as due this cause: http://dev.webinos.org/specifications/draft/vehicle.html Just to co-plug ya'll, since you're gonna hook me up with an 2014 M5 now, Webinos is _awesome_ stuff. So, portable JavaScript sandbox for apps and services, awesome, but, you ask, didn't Es, WebOS, Google Extensions, & soon Tizen all do the same thing? The killer feature for me is the Personal Zone Proxy, which turns Webinos into a fully connected service mesh overlay of all your devices and services, wherever you go. I submitted my own internetworking challenge to Knight's Network Challenge for a similar construct, http://newschallenge1.tumblr.com/post/19482119635/extend-dbus-internetworking-to-the-www , more protocol oriented (DBus) than your blind-runtime-just-makes-it system, but the idea is near and dear to my heart, and to I think the omni-connected ubicomp nerd posse out there. I haven't done any hardcore in depth review on Webinos's architecture in the past month or two, but webinos goes really far with this concept, there are Personal Zone Hubs which is a central relay for a perons's available Servies, and Personal Zone Proxies PZP which form satellites to make all your Personal Hub services available, and you can talk to other PZP's. There are Applications which can use anything in your Personal Zone. It's all some very cool overlay/ internetworking tech, I think there may be provisions for sharing of services across users beyond the core across device sharing it has. All to make a slick cross device JavaScript runtime for Applications using Services found across devices. Or, something to that effect. Andreas or anyone, is it possible to share services between users? Can't remember what inter-user activity is possible. Everyeone: Participate or no, I think everyone owes it to themself to check out some Webinos. Ok, way late for the nerdiest of nerdy meetups, our regular EVE Online meetup. Cya all later, -rektide PS: https://plus.google.com/113218107235105855584/posts is my G+. JS, Ubicomp, hardware, space, & writing at least as good/brain meltingly horrible as the above.
