Browser = Operating System

Cloud Computing arrived, and all that matters is your browser!

The Timemachine Add-on

Redesigns the web into 90s amateur style...

 

 

 

 

Internets ≠ Serious Business

Erweiterungen.de rejected the Timemachine add-on:

"Die Erweiterung passt nicht in eine Sammlung von Erweiterungen, die das Arbeiten mit Firefox erleichtern sollen. Ihre Erweiterung ist eher ein "Kunst-Produkt" ohne funktionalen Wert."

 

 

 

 

My conclusion:

 

 

 

 

My reaction: Artzilla.org
