Okay, but now I'm wondering - what's the difference between having a webpage just boot an offline program via a "a href" link? Skype does that if you go skype:someuserid in a href attribute iirc. And the fact that chrome is using chrome:// is kinda the point, too. Arguably, you wouldn't even need to make a custom URL prefix like that, if you forced a certain path and just did file:///... but no one sane likes forcing paths.
As a second suggestion - I know there's a lot of libraries for making webpages possible, but if people want "webapps", why doesn't someone just simply write something that can convert how a browser presents a webpage to the plugins, so the different browsers have multiplatform plugins?
I actually use the IE Tab for Chrome extension. I'm not wasting half a minute waiting for IE to start up, and the ActiveX is a good amount faster. (and does better on the Acid3 test too)

Microsoft is not afraid of win, but every time it does it, it gets a nice letter from an antitrust regulator.

The lava people use {} and () but they use them the opposite way.
Also, a pair of lowercase t's is how they comment.

I would have thought this new programming standard wouldn't have a chance but some European based commission has decided that it is a good idea and there is talk that Microsoft is considering dropping several successful lines of business in order to embrace it.
Me?

In the soccer (football) match between Aston Villa and Tottenham, the defender Jan Vertonghen decided that this[^] was a good way to tackle Aston Villas striker Nicklas Helenius  ...
Apperantly the referee didnt think this was an illegal move, so now you can teach you kids some new way of stopping an attack... 
Although I laughed pretty hard, this seems to be a penalty...

What do we care what foreigners do on the football field?
You should watch watch British teams, like Villa and Spurs.

You dont seem to care if danish players are without shorts

From the experiences I have had with Danish Girls, they spend a lot of time not wearing shorts, or indeed much else!

I had a remarkable time with a Danish Girl.

That might be true, but do you think Jan Vertonghen had a flashback?

He shouldn't be watching Brummagam teams anyway, far too close to being from t'North.
Much better to watch Palace, The Irons, Orient or, Best of All Charlton.
Proper football played by yer actual London Clubs.
