I agree with the premise but the problem is developing apps in any other ecosystem decreases your overall audience. You're either in the corporate world with their walled gardens, or in the FLOSS world where there's all sort of rough edges and things don't work as smoothly (and I say that with nothing but respect and admiration for all the well-meaning hard work from folks that's gone into both ecosystems, but it's the stark reality of matter).

The web is as close as we've gotten to making tech as user friendly and accessible. I bet Mr. Hearn has a bunch of technical proposals lined up for part 2, but how we cross all the factionalism, corporate or idealogical, that's formed in the software community at large since the birth of the web?
