Desktop.com was an Application Service Provider founded by Katie Burke Mitic, Larry Drebes, and Karen Drebes. They created a Web application compatible with the Internet Explorer 4 browser (and announced compatibility with Netscape Navigator 4) that effectively simulates a user's desktop over the World Wide Web, so that it is accessible from anywhere. A full window management and application launching system existed, controlled by JavaScript code. Much of this code was downloaded during the login process, which made the first access very long (e.g. a few minutes) but the resulting user experience was like that one of desktop applications and not what would have been expected from traditional web applications. Desktop.com may be characterized as a predecessor to the later concepts of Ajax, rich Internet applications, web desktop, etc. ==References== 〔 * (Desktop.com Secures $29M in First-Round Financing ) - August 29, 1999 news on (internetnews.com ). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Desktop.com」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
