What Are Browser Apps?

Browser apps extend the way users interact with their favorite sites by adding new functionality directly to any site. Browser apps can augment any site, like Facebook and Twitter, add more information to search results and extend your reach beyond your own web domain. Kynetx enables apps that are more aware of user context, identity and the events they generate across the Web.

Featured Kynetx Browser App: TomatoFlix

Netflix
With TomatoFlix installed as a browser app you are able to see the movie ratings from Rotten Tomatoes integrated into Netflix, IMDB, Redbox, Fandango and Movies.com. It's so nice to have the rating from Rotten Tomatoes inline when visiting other websites. Many thanks to Steven Nay for developing a useful and pratical browser app.

Install TomatoFlix at the Kynetx Browser Apps Marketplace.

Kynetx's New Sandboxed Browser Extensions

I recently released my “Old School Retweet” Kynetx app in the Kynetx app store for the newly released browser extensions. I super love the new extensions and all that they do for users and developers alike. Something that I forgot when I released the app in the app store is that the new extension are sandboxed.

Because the extensions are sandboxed, all of the scripts from the extensions run a bit differently than they used to in the previous Kynetx extensions. Without getting into the technical details too much, the previous extensions just injected JavaScript into the page and the new extensions run JavaScript in a sandbox which has access to the DOM but can’t access anything else on the page. Because of this change my retweet app broke since I was using the jQuery loaded by Twitter.com to bring up the new tweet box (I do this because Twitter.com used that library to bind a click event and to trigger that event it has to be from the same library that bound it). Thankfully, with the help of a friend, I was able to get a work around for both Firefox and Chrome’s sandbox environment.

Kynetx Kicks off the Web With No Log in Button With New Browser Extension

In previous posts I have talked about the concept of the "Web with no login button". I call it the next iteration of the web, Web 3.0 if you may, where the web follows you. Everywhere you go, the web knows who you are, what you are doing, where you are, and it adapts based on what it knows about you. The kicker is no server anywhere needs to know who you are. Only your browser, on your machine, will ever store any private details about you, and it will be up to you to decide which sites you share that with. Today at Kynetx Impact Conference in Salt Lake City, Utah, Kynetx made that much more a reality with a new browser extension that runs off the Kynetx platform.

Kynetx Browser Apps Run Within a Single Extension

The difference between something like Kynetx and a browser-specific service like Greasemonkey is that Kynetx runs entirely within a single browser extension. It also runs entirely in the cloud, meaning that the end-user never needs to worry about updating their extensions; the moment a developer uploads an update, the user sees the results.

Nearly 100 developers and fans of the Live Web gathered at the evening keynote session of Impact, Kynetx annual conference in South Jordan, Utah. Punching up the volume around its disruptive context automation development platform, the company brought in super-geek mentors and heavyweight speakers to this year’s event. After the gourmet geek feeding, attendees started prepping their creations for the first veggie derby I’ve ever witnessed—or even heard of. Background blues music accompanied the party mood and would be 4-wheel veggie car designers seemed only mildly annoyed when temporarily interrupted for the main event.

Here an app store, there an app store, everywhere an app store. 2011 is quickly becoming a year of app stores, with each browser offering its own marketplace of Web apps. What's a multi-browser user to do in this world?

Kynetx, a cross-browser platform for browser extensions and apps, wants to give both developers and users a one-stop shop for apps that don't discriminate according to what browser you use for what task. The company has launched an app store of its own for something it's calling "browser apps."
