Comments

Correct predictions about what the internet would become.

But it was the web. But we have not seen a single remotely interesting competing protocol with anywhere near the seed of possibility the web has brought. Everything else interactive has remained just an application, just code; too complex to be internetworked, just code, not protocols or data.

The web remains the only deep medium of the internet.
