+Is Safari coming to windows? There have been rumors floating around for a while that Apple might be porting its Cocoa language to the Windows platform which would allow WebKit, the engine behind Safari, to run natively in Windows. There's even some [fake screenshots][2] of what Safari on Windows might look like.
+Now it seems that the Mozilla Foundation thinks a Windows Safari port is a possibility. Buried in yesterday's tentative Firefox 3 [wiki roadmap][1] document is this line: "WebKit may be ported to Windows."
+With the announcement of the iPhone the possibility of a Window's WebKit port does seem like it would make sense. After all, it was the popularity of the iPod that brought iTunes to Windows. 
+A similar argument could be made that Apple is going to need to port aspects of Cocoa to get iPhone to work with Windows. Whether or not that would include WebKit is debatable, but given the iPhone's reliance on widgets, WebKit seems like a good place to start.
+Some people think Apple would be better off not porting its software to Windows and keeping the "Mac experience" unique to their own platform, but as Apple becomes less a computer manufacturer and more a device manufacturer it might make more sense to strive for interoperability.
+However, the future seems to pointing toward openness and platform agnosticism, not platform dependancies. As one of the more popular topics in Wired's [call for tech trends][3] reads: "It's more important to capture mind-share by spreading your vision far and wide than it is to hold onto it while you try to outdo rivals."
+Will Apple embrace this trend and bring more software to the Windows platform?
