  1. How will they integrate into Ubuntu?


  2. How can the user use this integrated web technologies (Where would the menu options be, What options, password, user stuff do I need to add/activate/type in a form)?


  3. How will the integration of this webapp technologies benefit the user?


  4. What are the pros/cons in this new Ubuntu changes?

  2. How can the user use this integrated web technologies (Where would the menu options be, What options, password, user stuff do I need to add/activate/type in a form)?

    2. Access and launch your social media accounts (Google+, Twitter, Facebook) from the Launcher, and get native desktop notifications


    3. Quickly and seamlessly upload photos to Facebook from Shotwell

    4. Pause and play the video you are watching on Youtube

    5. See how many unread messages you have in your GMail account, in Ubuntu’s messaging indicator


  4. What are the pros/cons in this new Ubuntu changes?

  5. Will askubuntu, Ubuntu forum and other Ubuntu user sites integrate as well?



    Probably yes, But if you are a developer no need to wait others, here is the API, start hacking ;-)
