Currently there's dozens if not hundreds of VR experiences, apps, games etc but they all live in silos. You launch an exe or whatever then you're done.

It's as if every website needed a downloadable exe and there were no such things as hyperlinks between websites.

WebVR opens up the possibility of navigating between apps, building sites that curate or embed apps - all the richness that distinguishes the web from silo'ed apps.

VR really suits the idea of 'browsing' so making it part of the web is extremely natural.
