Goals & Non-Goals

Goals

make use of todays technology (higher resolutions and color depth, more memory, faster prozessors, gpu-processing) and interface elements such as drag 'n drop, (multi)touch
forget everything about tabs, bookmarks and history

Non-Goals

do minor enhancements to the old interface
build on top of outdated ideas

Description

here should be more. realy.

Visualisation

Animation

Older concept.

Some basics

Toolwindows

Toolwindows make no sense. No one needs extra windows so they should be inside the browser.
Toolwindows could be some kind of app. So lets redefine:

Window=window.open(,'name','toolbar=no,location=no,status=no,menubar=no, scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=500,height=200')

could mean: create an "app" which is 500x200 in pixels. This box can be moved around, snapped, dragged, dropped. It doesn't depend on anything. Its just there and doing something. Maybe an online radio, a chat, an calculator.
