 == What is Pancake? ==
-Pancake is a new Mozilla Labs project focused on evolving the Web to better meet users' needs in a world where devices and platforms are proliferating at lightning speed. We're starting this process by creating a usable prototype that is a fairly simple iPad app that talks to and works with a much more complex Web service.
+Pancake is a new Mozilla Labs project in which we're exploring the following questions:
+* How can we make it easier for people to quickly get to the content and information they care about?
+* Is there value in modeling and structuring web navigation in new ways -- rather than bookmarks, history, windows and tabs, what if navigation was organized by topic of interest, or things recommended by people of interest?
+* If navigation is modeled by topics and people, what would be possible in the area of intelligent recommendations?
+* What opportunities are created by touch interfaces to make using the web more productive, engaging and fun?
+* Can we use HTML5 to create a web navigation experience that works on all of the devices in our lives?
+We've started to investigate and develop some of these ideas by building an iPad app backed by a web service.  We call it Pancake.
