Mozilla Labs has launched a new project with the aim to explore the blending of the desktop and the Web through deeper integration of the browser with online services. The project, dubbed Weave, will focus on finding ways to enhance the Firefox user experience, increase user control over personal information, and provide new opportunities for developers to build innovative online experiences. “Just like Mozilla enables massive innovation by making Firefox open on many levels, we will aim to do the same with Weave by developing an open extensible framework for services integration,” reads the blog post over at Mozilla Labs.
