Lighter-than Wins in 2007
January 18, 2007 11:12

What do all the MAJOR Web 2.0 technologies of 2007 have in common?

Let me list them first:

    M.icroformats (including tags)
    A.jax (including Comet)
    J.SON (plus YAML)
    O.penID (plus SXIP, LID, Yadis)
    R.EST (including Atom, APP)

What these technologies have in common is that they're all lighter than their competitors:

Microformats

Lighter than the Semantic Web

Ajax

Lighter than Fat Client (!)

JSON

Lighter than XML

OpenID

Lighter than SAML/Liberty Alliance

REST

Lighter than SOA

  ...
