Idea #1:

WebSlices plug-in.

In IE8 beta1 there is a new feature - WebSlices

Brief description: Users commonly visit many websites several times a day to check for updates. The introduction of RSS feeds can make this experience easier for users, although RSS feeds requires a nontrivial amount of work on behalf of the developer.

WebSlices is a new feature for websites that enables users to subscribe to content directly within a webpage. WebSlices behave just like feeds in that users can subscribe to them and receive update notifications when the content changes. Websites are polled at user-defined intervals, similar to the way RSS feeds are polled. Website operators may also define a minimum wait time between polls to minimize requests.

Developers can mark parts of webpages as "WebSlices" and enable users to monitor information they rely on as they move about the web. With a click in the Favorites bar, users see rich "WebSlice" visuals and developers establish a valuable, persistent end-user connection.

Idea #2

Toolbar As a platform for mashups

We need to implement REST in the Javascript + integrate with SOA adapters

SOA Web Services + REST oriented Web Services + Browser interaction through toolbar = Good Enterprise Mashups!!
