Hi, yes, that's my impression as well.

Well, I like the idea of an application / service framework with a dynamic  
mesh. Beside IM a lot of different applications come to mind. For example  
a P2P eBay. You just publish your stuff and others can query it.

So, APEX looks to me like an infrastructure for meshs of services.  
Something like a plug-in infrastructure over the internet. And that's what  
I find interesting about it. Web2 apps are far from being plug-in able.  
You either use them or not, but you can't combine them.
