The browser and mobile phones will be the OSes of the future.

That is a good comments.

Oh s**t, Digg really is dead isn't it?
stolemybikeSep 10, 2010
Yep. Badqat is about the only one who attempts to make on-topic comments. Other than that, we have a dead community on our hands.
nitroburnSep 10, 2010
On topic, but they always feel highly generic.
philbertSep 10, 2010
I try to as well, but people don't want real conversation, they just want to bash Digg so I always get buried.

Even with (very awesome) things like Unity, I don't see a desktop application death any time soon.
Yes, cloud computing is awesome, and yes, most of the time we're able to have internet. But we humans like to own things. You think the DRM in Starcraft 2 (or AC2 or any of the billion other hot buttons) is bad, wait until you don't even have access to *your own* files.
What's that? You didn't pay last month? Oh, sorry, we own all your stuff so..... gfg. What's that? You break our Terms of Service? Well, you know that project you've worked 60 hours on? You can't get it anymore. Sorry, you checked that little box. Bye bye!

The first few times someone regurgitates an article concept, it's funny. But this is just getting painfully tired now.
Article writer needs to tour some places where people do real content creation work, to understand why the desktop will be our friend for a while to come still.

Sorry but this is BS. 90% of the applications I use could never be used like this. My colleagues would laugh at me if I said I was using web based apps.

I'll believe it the minute I see a full-blown copy of Photoshop on my phone.

Desktops, and the associated software will have a footprint in high-end computational processing and integration with humans for at least 10 more years.
The simple fact that a desktop is SO easy to physically, mod, alter or otherwise manipulate, gives it a unique place in our technological world.
