Live Labs Seahorse rich client app moving forward

The CodenameWindows blog has reposted a couple of recent job descriptions that give some hints about a rich client app based on Seadragon called Seahorse.

Your help can critically impact one of the most revolutionary new products being built at the company: Seahorse. We are a v1 product group within Live Labs – the people that brought you Seadragon and Photosynth . We typically don’t share much about the Seahorse vision; but we can share the following. As a sister team to Seadragon, the Seahorse vision involves building a new rich client application with deep ties to the web, web-services, Seadragon visualizations, and your client-side documents. We are – in a very real sense – hoping to redefine the way that people think about organizing, visualizing, saving, sharing and consuming large amounts of rich visual data. Succinctly, we hope to change the way people think about the internet.

Based on this blog post from 12/2007 it would appear that Seahorse has been brewing at live labs for a while.
