I have also feel that the web has become bloated and overloaded. I don't see what this has to do with the iPad. What I would like to see is a revival of the web with structural markup, fluid layouts and a minimum of distractions.
Is there anything about what you need to do which can only be done on an iPad? Such a revival is easier on a new platform where you don't know what to expect yet. However, I don't see anything which would prevent someone bold enough from cleaning up their part of the web.
- msy 16y agoNo, but the recent spate of apps that take user experience when accessing third party content very seriously shows how utterly painful most of the normal web is. I think with first-party content providers it's also that if they're getting paid, they at the very least cut the ads down from eye-gouge to simply irritating, which helps as well. I think maybe the point is that while there's nothing technically special about the platform, at the high end its developers are in a league of their own when it comes to UI. This is of course a distilled version of the entire Apple developer culture, which has always taken this stuff more seriously than Windows and certainly *nix.
