The Web Is More Than Enough, by Paul Ford(ftrain.com)
Paul Ford's article "The Web Is More Than Enough" highlights the capabilities of web browsers in enabling rich app development, which has become radically easier and more accessible. Ford's recent launch of tinylittleoffice.com, a web-based office suite, drew hundreds of thousands of visitors and sparked interest on platforms like Hacker News, GitHub, and Product Hunt.
