<div><div>As for the burden to put apps in their own domain - First it seems to be an unnecessary requirement. I build an app, I choose a URL as I normally would and I would hope everthing would work out fine. Second it doesn't work well for environments where access to the domain is not possible. Consider the case of internal corporate apps. People post new web apps using their 'individual' internal corporate web server. They can choose whatever name they want. What they don't have is access to the domain in order to do this. I grant that this scenario is currently not well supported by the Gear's security model (something that I believe will need to change), but it is a real use of technology.

</div></div></blockquote><div><br>If my experiences are not unusual, companies provide ways for their employees, and groups within the corporation to easily set up their own internal web sites. The company hosts these within their top level internal corporate web domain, but they all exist under a single domain. For example I might have a control over the path //internal.X.com/users/ajpalay and you would have control over //internal.X.com/users/robert. There might also be //internal.X.com/orgs/hr and //internal.X.com/orgs/finance.
