  Bryan Clark & Havoc Pennington
  Mugshot and the Online Desktop

  People are using hundreds of web based applications running inside
  Firefox every day to get their work done. While there are plenty of
  excellent desktop based applications, the time has passed for the
  Linux Desktop to continue ignoring the presence and usefulness of web
  applications. The GNOME Online Desktop is a mighty acronym for
  integrating online services people are already using with desktop as
  tightly as desktop applications are integrated now. Havoc and Bryan
  talked about this new Online Desktop vision and how they're
  using Mugshot to get there.

PS: media is not my thing.  Anyone who wants to help out with this,
