Maybe I'm the minority using mostly web apps. I find that having something on the web is more convenient because I can get to something on virtually any machine.ryangravesSun, 15 Jun 2008 11:28:34 -0000http://ryanagraves.com/06/12/2008/desktop-vs-browser/#comment-676642I agree with Scott, and I spend most of my time in desktop apps (emacs, textmate, itunes, mail, netnewswire, adium, preview, pages and keynote). Then I use the web for documentation, blog reading (from community sites, planets mainly) and LinkedIn.<br><br>From the desktop apps I use I would only consider to migrate to a browser-only solution for the mail and feed reader. But the thing is that I like to be able to read them off-line. So... In the other cases (text editing, word processing, slides and multimedia) the desktop apps are so much better than the browser ones. And with dropbox I've access to all my documents in almost any computer.eduSat, 14 Jun 2008 14:19:19 -0000http://ryanagraves.com/06/12/2008/desktop-vs-browser/#comment-676066The overwhelming majority remains on the desktop. I find that desktop apps tend to have higher throughput.Scott WheelerSat, 14 Jun 2008 10:52:51 -0000http://ryanagraves.com/06/12/2008/desktop-vs-browser/#comment-669942After working in IT, I really prefer to have as much as possible in the browser. Exceptions apply (customer data, financial data (which was our industry, so I quickly became a security snob) ), but for my normal, everyday stuff, browser wins. But I'm a media guy (photo, video, design), and all that stuff is still firmly supplanted in the desktop due to speed, reliability, and quality (of apps).svdodgeFri, 13 Jun 2008 11:55:09 -0000http://ryanagraves.com/06/12/2008/desktop-vs-browser/#comment-669877just about all the work i do is desktop based. <br>i would rather have everything browser based so i wouldnt have to install programs on all the computers i work at. but i dont pay for the license the company does...andyFri, 13 Jun 2008 11:47:41 -0000http://ryanagraves.com/06/12/2008/desktop-vs-browser/#comment-65161880% browser vs. 20% desktop app...if adobe air apps (twhirl) are desktop.ryangravesFri, 13 Jun 2008 00:53:07 -0000
