I have a unique opportunity to get input from people that might sometime use these enhanced versions of browsers to publish their websites with.
I'm adding features to both browsers that will create an RSS type favorites window that is way more powerful than the title and link that the favorite function now have available to them.
I'm adding a merge function to both browsers that will merge MTML files with the currently open file or make it possible to open a new file from the incoming link.
What you will be able to offer for your clients is my MTML, Intuition Browser, combined with either Internet Explorer or Safari where hyperlinks are checked for HTML, MTML, or RSS before loading. They will still retain full functions to use CGI, PDF, and Flash type media.
I'm hoping to offer a very simplified tool bar for the Internet Explorer & Safari portions of the surfing experience. There will be a progress bar showing the file progress being loaded and on top will be back & forward buttons as well as a history of pages viewed whether they are MTML, Intuition pages, or HTML, Internet Explorer & Safari pages.
When an MTML link is offered from your hosted website, these links should be shown to be different like when PDF links are shown. In the new enhanced browser they will download and view properly but in any other browser they will appear as text & base64 encoded text. The file extension for MTML is ".txt"
Each MTML version 3.5 file will have a file type <mtml version="3.5"> header along with standard search engine meta data like keywords="xxxx, xxxxx, vvv"/> and the four primary elements of RSS, title, link, description, & pubDate.
In this new enhanced browser, when a person visits one of your websites, the user can add that enhanced description, title, link, & pubDate to their favorites window or they can import that information as a page into the currently open Intuition file. In that way they can create Intuition pages while visiting non Intuition, HTML, websites.
In this way the user can create a very powerful resource for following several links from the internet and finding this information later through Intuition's powerful relational text gathering system.
So if a user never learns how to use Intuition in any other fashion they will be able to use the internet's RSS functions as a favorites feature in these new browsers.
It will be possible to create portals & site maps that are integrated right into a website with this feature.
So as I go forward to develop this new browser I want to know what kinds of meta-data be made available to the head portions of the new MTML 3.5 format. I might even consider adding all of the RSS 2.0 elements to the file header as well.
Any suggestions would be welcome. My biggest interest is to get the user to create a description, abstract, of a website page while saving that page's information in this newly enhanced favorites function. The link and title are right there in the HTML & URL. The missing info is the published date and the description. When this is missing I'm thinking of stripping any meta-data that could apply to the description and while providing that information letting the user cut & paste text into the description while creating each favorite resource.
Thanks for any suggestions,
