>>>> Red Herring. KnowNow tackles two way computing. Puff piece. The real-time enterprise is a hype bubble that never took off. Why? People don't need faster information they need better information -- knowledge. How to generate more knowledge? Build a Radio Weblog for each employee and find out. 11:22:39 AM    Comment_ Trackback []

>>>> Dave Winer. Ahead of the curve as usual. July 8, 2000. It's amazing it has taken the industry over a year to notice. "An example, if Napster implemented an XML-RPC interface, we'd all be jumping on that bandwagon in minutes. There would be no debate over modular this or that, or whether we should use SOAP or RDF or whatever. In all software markets, apps drive.... Apps apps apps. Ship apps." 10:46:11 AM    Comment_ Trackback []

>>>> O'Reilly. (older story) Gene Kan, of Gnutella, on a dynamic Web services search over P2P. "So you can play around with the idea that instead of throwing a query into our network and expecting a response, you could throw, for example, an XML-RPC request. You could say, "I want this request to be answered by somebody," and then the hub would look at that request and it would say, "Well, which providers that I know about first of all have even registered for this XML structure, and secondly have either explicitly or just as a wildcard registered for a particular method?" And then it would get routed to different providers around the network who could qualify that; the idea there is you can build this distributed, RPC mechanism without the clients or those other providers having to know exactly who's who." Where is this now or did they run out of steam? 10:39:00 AM    Comment_ Trackback []

>>>> Freenet. XML-RPC over Freenet. XML-RPC over P2P is gaining momentum. IMHO, this is the only architecture that will stop Microsoft's Hailstorm dead in its tracks. 10:01:40 AM    Comment_ Trackback []
