It's great that you use the term AWESOME WEB! That's the label we used for a concept we launched last year that focuses on the new generation of the web platform. http://theawesomeweb.com This has become the basis of the work we've been developing in the Augmented Web CG too. http://www.w3.org/community/ar/ http://www.w3.org/community/ar/demos-and-projects/ I think the points Rob makes below are really important. At the heart of these is deep linking which makes social sharing, bookmarking and search engine discovery possible and provides one tap/click access. This is the native applications achilles' heel. And now when we combine this with the post HTML5 features discussed above there's a good case that the web is not "just as good as native". The web platform is clearly jumping ahead in leaps and bounds. Rob Co-founder http://mob-labs.com We make complex things easy!
