Spymac.com reports that Apple is working on a project currently know as "iSite". It appears to provide further integration for .Mac users... allowing users to serve pages and possibly video streams from their home computer. This would leverage Apple's inclusion of Apache in every copy of Mac OS X, as well as previously mentioned Video Conferencing software from Apple:
- Purportedly, users will have the ability to make their .Mac web page URL redirect to their own computer. If a connection cannot be made (if the computer is turned off, for example) the traditional online version of the site will be displayed from Apple's servers.
This may provide some interesting capabilities, but may run into some difficulties with broadband terms of service which frequently limit "server" applications on home computers.
