Bookmarks, back button, forward button, reload:

The tools that let me build applications that support these browser
features build web apps that are a joy to use.  Those that don't
aren't.

State is a tricky thing that needs to be considered in this
discussion.  The web is stateless.  Applications generally aren't.  In
order to ensure that the user experience is a great one, the
application server needs to generate URLs, and utilize other tools
such as cookies in such a way as to not break when faced with the user
hitting "back" or bookmarking a page and returning to it later.  This
is achievable, but it is also a bit challenging.

On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth
On the second day, God created the oceans.
On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours,
   and did a little diving.
And God said, "This is good."
