Organizr. It’s starting to be an important mystery of the age how the lovely folks at Ludicorp continue to get so far ahead of the others in this area. It’s not that much of a mystery, because having met and otherwise interacted with folks there it’s clear there’re some serious talents in the mix. But no one else seems really to be trying. Is there some business school mantra out there that says “just let a rabbit get WAY out front of everyone else and then scramble to keep up later”? Or am I missing data here – are there others that I should know about?

By “others” I mean companies that are building highly responsive and interactive web applications, using flash or other interfaces, that actually serve some purpose and interact easily with both local computers and the larger web.
Is anyone building webapps that don’t feel like normal web pages being re-loaded when you do something?
Boris Anthony says
Nope, they’re waaay out ahead… but not just because they make cool UI’s for amazing XML based backends.. but because they open it up to!

Oh yeah, I mean that for sure. That’s what I was getting to with the “interacts with the larger web” bit.
