The Blog
27 Aug 2001 There's a group of people in a via web that have created a new term. Blognosing.
I think we need a contrast to this so I'm inventing an alternative. Blog-Dissing. Remember, you read it here first. [ 27-Aug-01 8:02pm ] On one side we have Dave W saying "I did some writing over the weekend about Web Services, and realized that the term is vague, and it probably isn't what we do. I couldn't make it work. We already had a good term that explains why we have been investing in SOAP and XML-RPC, and I think we'll stick with it." and on the other we have Web Services Org with "GLUE Web Services Platform goes into Production"
There's something going on here in the TLA soup of SOAP, UDDI, WSDL, ebXML but some days, I'm not at all sure what.

How very Fortean. It looks like a large ball of cotton wool in a jam jar.
[ 27-Aug-01 7:32pm ] 25 Aug 2001 'Parasitic grid' wireless movement may threaten telecom profits What if you combine 802.11b with the old ideas in the Fido network. Fido was a BBS system that used free local calls to build a daisy chain of replicated nodes across the USA and beyond. Could you build a WAN from 20 mile 802.11b hops? How big could this get?
At one end of the spectrum we have a hoard of programmers hacking away, linking Blogger, Jabber, WAP, Manila and anything else they can think of into a web of intersections. These are all web services and use an RPC protocol. It was launched into action when Blogger did an API in XML-RPC
At the other end of the spectrum we have the B2B folks trying to track what on earth MS and IBM are up to. This attracted 300 people to an almost ad-hoc meeting this week in SF. Report from 'The State of Web Services' event Are these two things related? Or will the two groups just pass each other like ships in the night? I've been convinced since the end of last year that web services and RPC via XML is incredibly important. I just wish everyone would stop being so hung up on whether Passport is going to take over the web and get back to trying to understand what an XML RPC standard means and what we can do with it.

The Register : This fruit is, apparently "the ideal advertising medium because people throw away the peel, so the label is not irritating.. but it's there in front of you," And did you know that Germany is the highest consumer of bananas per capita of any country? Or that Quatemala is effectively owned by United Fruit.
