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
  • one interface for everything - seamless browsing

Non-Goals

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  • build on top of outdated ideas

Description

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.
