God, maybe I'm dumb despite my beliefs to the contrary, but what is this guy trying to say? Ctrl-F for "temporal": > web4ᵗʰ aka "the temporal web": user interactions across screen space and time of an immutable conversation > What do we have? > * The temporal web with conversation-first interfaces, leveraging decentralized communication protocols. > * Forcing developers to really think at the isolated-component level, while reducing the surface of worry (remember mobile-first, constraints are a blessing). > * Making their life simpler (even though they don't want it because… money, you know) > * And most importantly making users' lives simpler: catering better for their intents and adding outstanding build-in support That's a lot of bullshit bingo points... Is it basically a chatbot as a UI? To misuse his term, I thought "temporal web" was the recognition that the internet you're looking at now is different from yesterday's, because content get added, deleted and changed all the time. A web where you can rewind to "Version from $DATE" would be interesting...

Addendum: I think booking.com tried this (maybe they still have it): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftr9qW8Axiw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftr9qW8Axiw But me clicking a button to see the details of my booking and getting transferred to a chat interface where my click was translated to a question with a "processing" progress bar irritated me to no end. And it replies with just a partial info inside a tiny chat bubble instead of having all the info in full screen! Just give me the freaking page with my booking details, godfuckingdamnit!

  interesting, didn't know about the booking experiment but as i was trying to explain, they missed the point and just created frustration for users didn't want my article to sound like bullshit, that's why i built a poc to try and explain that it's not about having chatbots, but having entire components in a chronological order of the interactions with a website in your case the booking details would be easily accessible just by scrolling up for instance
