Safari and Chrome are both based on Webkit. SVN here: http://www.webkit.org/building/checkout.html

Apple's original plan was that third-party stuff would be in web app form. They took tons of flak from the developer community over that, so no, they didn't "push everyone to apps".

Safari and Chrome are both based on Webkit.

And webkit derived from KHTML (loosely), the project coming to public attention as Apple came under criticism for taking but not giving.

Apple's original plan

And Google's original plan was don't be evil. I would never -- even if I ever got some screwed up idea that I need to defend a corporation online -- reference that to defend their honour.

I'm not "defending their hono[u]r". I'm pointing out that they didn't "push everyone to apps", which is a fact.
