I think I read once that google chrome was working on some kind of API for mapping file extensions to web sites, so that you could for example have a .docx map to a url like http://word.com?OpenFile=%1 Opening the file from your OS would fire up the browser and take you to the appropriate site and give the site access to the file.
Is this true or am I just going crazy? If so, where can I find the spec for that system?
Ha! Found it at http://googlecode.blogspot.com/2011/06/working-with-chromes-file-browser.html and http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/fileBrowserHandler.html
Take that, close voters!
