Very good read over on Wired.com about Google's strategy to free people from apps (and lock them in to the web where google is king).

Here is a snippet from the piece:
What makes Google Now’s pull away from apps even more compelling is that it was joined at I/O by a series of gentle pushes in the same direction. Google’s doing everything it can to get us all back to the web.
“One of the subtle undertones that we got throughout this morning was, ‘Look at all these things you can do on the web,'” Facemire says. “The web is the underlying architecture behind everything Google is doing, even on Android.”
The web-positive tweaks at I/O were too numerous to list comprehensively; they permeated the presentation.
Happy Reading,
