Users use many different services on the web to handle their day-to-day tasks, such as sharing images, editing documents and listening to music. They expect their applications to be connected and to work together seamlessly.
It's impossible for developers to anticipate every new service and to integrate with every existing external service that their users prefer, and thus they must choose to integrate with a few select APIs at great expense to the developer.
Help is on the way, in the form of Web Intents. Web Intents is a framework for client-side service discovery and inter-application communication.
Web Intents put the user in control of service integrations and makes the developer's life simpler. This talk covers use cases, demos, and a look at what's coming next.
