fish:// + web forms == happy aseigo

i've got my life spread out over several machines. some are at the office, some are at home, some are at co-lo's around the town ... so when i'm looking something up on the web but i want to save a file to a different machine, what do i do? fish:// in the Save dialog, of course!

what do i do when i need to upload something that's on another machine? fish:// in the file upload entry, of course!

with other browsers i'd have to first move the file locally to the machine i'm browsing from and then do something with it.

but when i use Konqueror, i'm just one URL away from all my data. a lot of companies have talked about the network being the computer, and i think that's a sweet idea. but it's KDE that ended up delivering on that.

innovation on the desktop? i got it right here. it's blue and it's got a K in front of it. =P

I wish I knew how to use fish://. It seems pretty neat, but I have never figured out how to use it.
