Less CPU, Less RAM, Less Size, Less Load on Client, Less Load on server means Faster Solutions and services. They also mean Green as low power consumption and longer lasting Electronics.

Not all apps can be green, but as green as Possible is good for you the creator, green for the user and a minimal Carbon Footprint.

Some Apps and Applets or Widgets take more CPU and Memory Resources, Here is a gadget made to demonstrate it Aquatic Animations. When the Screen shows entire Aquarium, CPU Loads use FreeMeter to study. The 1 GHz computers are also affected. We cannot assume all have state of the art machines and browsers. The Latest Desktop Programs also just Choke the Machines.

The CPU is being made faster and multicore and the OS Makers again overload the Architecture by luxurious resource hungry Systems. This has been happening since 286, but most pronounced now. The OS can be developed without making it Beefy and Heavy. The CPU cant keep getting faster. It needs to be Energy Efficient and the OS Slim and Sensible.

The only solution is to move to Handhelds and Webapps to end this Runaway OS Design Process.

Conclusion -

The computing capability requirement for a future user is enormous, The data and databases unmanageable. Neither can he carry a Supercomputer in his Knapsack, nor can he afford to keep it in his home. He would either way not use it to full capacity.

He can carry or keep on his desktop a Light Weight Affordable Viewer alone. Hence "Move the Computation Online".

The User of the future will say "Just gimme an Ajax". He will pay for the Results. Not a Supercomputer.

I am putting back some of my old posts (~1999) after review and corrections. Excuse Spelling, Grammar and Content mistakes.

• Keep information 3 clicks away to improve accessibility, have a search and site map too.
• Html tables can be sized with % and not by pixels, so that it can resize according to different computers of say 1024*768 and 800*600. use pixels for single columns only or when you put all in a 740px limited page.
• FTP not working use passive mode for fire walled sites. Use Filezilla.
• Avoid frames even iframe of dhtml, use the noframes option. Main problem is that visitors cannot get back to your frames site after finding a nice page on the search engine, or keep a link on every framed page to home index.html with '_top'.
• Webpages should be usable, at 1024*768 and 800*600. viewable by mozilla 1.0+ and IE5+, most used vga settings are 1024*768 high.
• The KiloByte weight of a single web page with images, flash, js and css could be a max of 100 kb for up to 10,000 views per day, 200 kb for 1000 visitors per day, 500 kb if you have only 10 visitors per day. Due to bandwidth requirement of server and other bottlenecks. A page of 500 kb will cause great frustration to some users at busy times and poor connection. Use >1Mb pages only for Intranet or offline work.
• Always keep your local website in one folder like 'myweb' all sub folders within that, to a large extent use lower case, 8.3 format like anewpage.htm, .html and .js etc. If you use long file names do not use space in file names or folders, try something like my-best-book.html.
• Images should be like ../images/cat.gif or pictures/jug.jpg. not like file://d://myweb/images/cat.gif this will not work url should be 'relative' only or 'absolute' like http://www.sun.com/jug.png.

The webpages you make should be verified in all major browsers. The pages, webapps, scripts and applets must work well in Linux, Mac and xp.

Making it very flashy, Animated DHTML navigation, etc. may impress a few but may be a big usability problems for some visitors, search engines also will have trouble indexing your pages. Avoid too much frames and scripts too, use some CSS. DHTML-CSS generation in some Wysiwyg work only in certain browsers and OS - Beware.

• The Pages must be Viewable by 800*600 and 1024*768 Monitors.
• The PNG transparency must work for few versions of all above browsers.
• The Main Pages must load quickly for users of Broadband and Dial-up-Networking.
• Very Big Jpeg, Pdf, Mpeg, Flash, mp3 or Webapps must load only on Request.
• A Menu / Toolbar, Breadcrumb, sitemap and a search to Navigate and Return.
• Appropriate Meta-Tags, Proper title wth not more that 6 or 7 words.
• An About-Blog-Cell in Main Page to indicate in short what the website is for.
• An easily Accessible Online email form to contact you easily.
• A clear indication of who is the webmaster or company behind website.
• The Font size should not shrink and become unreadable on some browsers.
• light background preferable with dark 12px font or better.
• Inform in advance, pages about cookies, activex and java that needs information.
  

AI or artificial intelligence applications could be used to generate the search string to the search engines, this may help simple people get what they want in the internet, without having to rack their grey matter to improve their search results. The strength of a AI application depends on a human built database of knowledge with a capability to learn thru internet or by collaborative computing.

When we search and get the results the keywords and results can be monitored in the network. In some cases : examples - a researcher working on a sensitive topic, an inventor gathering data for his next innovation.

When a competing firm or group gets the keywords and results, they will be ahead in getting their products to the Market.

The technology is similar to Enterprise Search, but Secure Search is a search that has all web content with a subscribed access, SSL and encrypted 'like' gui-keywords-results.

Researchers, Companies and Inventors can subscribe and keep ideas and study Secret !

Playing various sound formats on the browser is a difficult experience for many. Even just midi and mp3 within browsers is difficult sometimes. Most plugins require big supporting software and frequent updates.

The adobe swf and flv plugin seems to integrate well with all browsers and is small and quick to update-setup. If small and medium mp3 and midi can be converted to swf or flv and played hidden in the webpage it could make integrating of sound in pages easy. So we need a midi to swf converter or a new flash sound only format like FLS, Flash Sound ?

Google Reader can be used as a Dynamic Content Presentation tool in Plain html pages. This has to be used in combination with Ajax Api and your Blog's Feed Set to Full. It has an advantage that only browsers with JavaScript enabled can view content. Then Search engines may not be able to index it.

• Google Reader
• Google AJAX Feed API
• Blogger Help
• Dynamic Drive- XML and RSS Scripts

Each site has to have its own Unique API Key, A Key on a top level domain may work on folders and subdomains. This is my learning. Once you make tags in reader make the tags public and use the feed URL of the tags on different pages or sections. Now by just tagging your posts in reader you will present your pages to the visitors. A Small site can be managed without editing any page !. But i am not sure if this can be a CMS idea.

Reader also has a Share with note that can be published with ajax api. By using the Bookmarklet "Note in reader", you can just comment on nice pages on the web. Your note and a Teaser Snippet of that site will be seen on the Ajax page you made. Set Description to full.
