“Aurora” is a concept piece by web think tank Adaptive Path for Mozilla, developers of the oh-so-famous Firefox web browser, and is intended to be a forward-thinking look into the future of how web browsers might function, render data and interact with users. The concept, at this stage in the game, is completely absurd of course, but who knows what the future may look like. The web has seen a huge surge of interest in openness with microformats and APIs in the last two to three years, and I don’t expect that to go away anytime soon, but for a concept like Aurora to work we’d need to see a truly open web that developers like I can only dream of at this point.
Update — Adaptive Path has posted several more videos in this Aurora series; they’re currently up to 4 as of this writing. Be sure to check those out as well.
