Les Orchard on the Colloquy IRC client. But I've been thinking about this sort of inversion of web tech for awhile. Instead of the browser hosting the app, the Fat Client app hosts the browser. I've been doing a ton of tinkery UI work with HTML and Java Script in my Rss Aggregator and have come to appreciate the [DOM] and various things Java Script makes possible in modern browsers. This has lately lead me to consider how a browser canvas could be used as a sort of universal WidgEt inside a native app... not at all unlike the way Colloquy uses it. Apple's WebKit encapsulation makes it just about dead simple to drop it into an app and integrate it.
