[erlang-questions] Erlang in the browser

[Max Bourinov]

So, the idea is to run distributed Erlang in browsers over the Internet?

Erlang web-based distributed computation network. That is very intresting
indeed. Don't know how to use it at the moment because I never think about
using Erlang this way, but I think cool ideas will come :-)

Best regards,
Max
