The Web has grown to become a hugely important medium, but it has also become horrendously complex, which extends development schedules and promotes bug formation.

Making things worse, the security vulnerabilities in the Web that have been present since its creation are becoming increasingly dangerous with time. Douglas Crockford introduces Seif, an open source project started at PayPal with the goal of transitioning the Web into an application delivery system that will be safer, easier to use, and easier to develop for.
