Thank goodness Push didn't catch on. But part of the reason it didn't
catch on is that /businesses/ have a smaller commons, and when businesses
found their internal networks were swamped because they had push installed
on browsers, they banned push.
(Push: Smart browsers that try to guess what you might want and download
it before you ask for it.)
