The web browser is the web application platform. Did you follow the link to Quake 2? It runs in browser you can download right now. And while the apps I mentioned do need some more support from the browser platform, that support is actually mostly there in some browsers. The only thing missing is native code speeds.
Are you keeping up with what web browsers are doing lately? They've turned a corner and are burning rubber now that we're increasingly less tied to Microsoft every day, and Microsoft's efforts to hold things back are no longer working. I'm hardly even hypothesizing, you can get demos of many of those things right now.
