Ya I've been thinking a lot lately that part of a real web 3.0 might be a realization that protocols are just protocols and that we can wrap anything we want inside of a VM. So instead of XMPP or whatever as glue between various interfaces, we'll just embed those interfaces inside something else with a standard interface. This could be similar to how GraphQL works, although more generalized. In today's terms, that would be something like a Docker container for Slack, one for Facebook Messenger, one for Skype, and SMS, and so on all the way down. Then communicating between those containers with pipes sending some kind of standardized compressed binary JSON format, or similar. This will work with other things besides chat - like websites, mobile apps, whatever you want. That would be the prerequisite for a web that works more like a shell. So we'll someday be able to pipe data around by wiring up URLs and treating them like executables. And that will be the prerequisite for software agents that can run on the web and do all the things we have to do by hand today. So maybe this is the darkness before dawn. Maybe the best is yet to come.
