Yeah, you know, that segment where a sh*t-ton of activity is going on with computing... and has been for the last couple of decades.

Yeah, seems that classic desktop applications are dead. You write server code and app works anywhere there is browser ;)

There are some which have moved to pure cloud, such as Google's photo editing offerings, but I do not think desktop apps are going anywhere soon, though more and more have ties to cloud services.

I haven't meant desktop apps like office, photo editor and media players,..., rather apps that can be moved to browser. What can be moved to browser will be moved to browser.
