Mozilla Labs Launches "~Web Activities' Experiment, Lets Web Apps Talk To Each Other

Mozilla has just posted an update to its Labs blog, where it shows off some of the new projects that it's been working on (which sometimes serve as previews of features that eventually get baked into Firefox or open web technologies). You'll need to install the FirefoxOpen Web Appsextension to use them " and these are primarily developer-focused for now " but they both sound very nifty.The more exciting of the two features, at least in terms of the potential for innovation, is what Mozilla is calling Web Activities (the concept has also been referred to as web intents and was originally conceived by Google Chrome developer advocate Paul Kinlan). It has a basic-sounding but very important goal: allowing multiple web applications to 'speak' to each other seamlessly.
