Web browsers don't exist in linux land?

  Yes, I see that it has "for browser," too; point taken. But experience indicates that when a service has native implementations and also a version that works in a web browser, the latter is very likely to be slow, clumsy, and incomplete. If the browser version is a first-class citizen, then usually there is no native version, because there is no need for one. For example, Gmail.

    I think your experience is rather limited, then. At least in the enterprise space, there's a need for both native clients and their full-featured web-based counterparts. They fulfill different, equally valid needs. Generally speaking, if a company's web-based products offer limited functionality, they become a big liability in competitive situations.

      If this is true, then this outfit is missing the native component for any free OS, which was my original point, wasn't it?
