Web services, smeb services
The Flangy News - Rants Ahoy When eBay exports an API that client side programs can use, *BAM* eBay is a Web Service. [ TheFlangyNews ]
Ooooooh. Now wouldn't that be cool!
Adam also says:
Web Services (or non-HTML Internet APIs) are going to complement web browsing, not replace it.
Here! Here!
As web developers, I'm sure we've all heard more than enough stories on how technology X was going to be the next big thing and replace everything that came before it.
My first big hype was java. I was just getting going in college when the first alpha came out. Of course, it's taken almost ten years and it didn't do what it set out to do. Like most other things, people used it in places that most people didn't expect.
Jeez, when I put it that way, it almost sounds like perl. *Shudder*
