I have tried Google Chrome to edit open source blog platforms like wordpress (eg.this blog) and crms eg. joomla and it really doesn't work well for some bizarre reason. I think I will be sticking to mozilla solutions. Browsers were designed in an era when there was no web??

Or at least, bought the company (to work on similar things inside Google Docs no doubt) The big plus-side to cloud computing is that it's always there. Google has gone down... once? In the last year. No more waiting two days while some tech-support guy comes up from Reading to fix your shizzle. Downside is connectivity, especially in more rural areas. Web3.0 will arrive when a product arrives that earns the title. There was talk of Web2.0 for years, but it didn't really arrive until Twitter.
