> it's no longer the web is it - just a way to deliver traditional applications

This statement is meaningless to me. What makes it "no longer the web?"

"The web" now includes fully-fledged applications. It's fine to make a distinction between things that are full applications and things that are close to blogs, if you like, but it doesn't change the fact that many people develop full applications for the web.

And I think this is clearly a lot more common you are recognizing.
