Abstract
The Web is advancing toward essentially a social network that transforms the Internet into a locus for all things social-data and applications.

This trend demands innovative technologies and applications that support people to work and collaborate seamlessly in both single-user desktop and multiuser Web environments. Such technologies make desktop applications Web-aware in that they can talk to Web servers using standard Web protocols
