I like the idea of building local apps with web technologies. Chrome has support for it, too. I would like to see a complete Linux distro built that way.
Great minds think alike. :-)
I would like to have same kind of app for Spotify or Netflix. :-)
Shared editing isn't anything new but I think I might use it if it were made as a library that I could embed on my apps...

contestantShared editing not, but shared editing fragments of web page (directly on them) yes. This isn't doable with Google Docs and won't be because they are not using contenteditable.
Anyway, I'm glad that you liked it. It's just a proof of concept that shared editing may be doable with contenteditable. I hope that we'll work on EPIC and maybe someday it will be usable and useful :).
Looks nice. Not sure if I would use it for my passwords though... idea about using password utility that's a Facebook app is a bit scary. However I didn't have time to try to figure out how secure it really is. :-)

contestantthanks for the reply and votes! Personally I wouldn't trust anyone with my passwords... which is why it doesn't actually store your passwords. It recalculates them client side when you request them. you can watch the network traffic, nothing secure is ever sent. obviously based on your feedback (and feedback from others), I ought to make the process more transparent
Hopefully in the next 5 years CORS is the only thing we need for building client side apps. :-)
