If you are looking to ride that wave, XML is surf board of
choice. Oh, my. That was awful.
At the core of Web 2.0 are permalinks, hyper-linking, and
syndication. Really, permalinks, are the core of the revolution,
it was hard to get anything done when people kept moving and
deleting data.
I think that as the dust starts to settle, XSLT is going to
become an important player in these applications.
My 2 cents. Thanks for the reading.
