Apps and extensions are two completely different things. An extension extends the browsers functionality, while an app is an application created using HTML and JavaScript that runs within the browser.
I think Bott's statement is completely incorrect, though. Extensions are still useful, but many Firefox extensions are being ported over to Google Chrome (though not all, as Chrome is still missing some API's).
Apps are important, but extensions and apps are in to separate categories. Plus there can certainly be extensions which use the apps and what not for integration purposes.
