Is Today's Web Still 'the Web'?

snydeq writes "Fatal Exception's Neil McAllister raises questions regarding the transforming nature of the Web now that Tim Berners-Lee's early vision has been supplanted by today's much more complex model. AJAX, Google Web Toolkit, Flash and Silverlight all have McAllister asking, 'Is [the Web] still the Web if you can't navigate directly to specific content? Is it still the Web if the content can't be indexed and searched? Is it still the Web if you can only view the application on certain clients or devices? Is it still the Web if you can't view source?' Such questions bely a much bigger question for Web developers, McAllister writes. If today's RIAs no longer resemble the 'Web,' then should we be shoehorning these apps into the Web's infrastructure, or is the problem that the client platforms simply aren't evolving fast enough to meet

The Wisdom of Crowds Meets the Wisdom of Authors: How XML Enables the Semantic Web

I recently attended the first-ever Linked Data Planet conference, where a number of pioneers in the field of Semantic Web shared their perspectives on the state of the art — and business — of helping the world tag their web pages for meaning. So what is the Semantic Web and how is it different from the web of today? On the web, most search engines today use key words and the number of links to a page to determine the relevance of search results. This is the wisdom of crowds at work: If the key words you are searching for occur often on that page, and the page is popular (i.e. lots of links to it), then it is probably the best bet for what you are searching for. The downside of this approach is that it infers meaning of the page. On the Semantic Web, the crowds get wiser thanks to the wisdom of authors, who can let the crowds know —

Web Browser Wars: Google Looking Beyond Market Share

With the advent of Google's (GOOG) foray into Web browsers with Google Chrome, we have yet another contender for the title of Web Browser King. If you're not a die-hard web user this may not seem like a great title. Some Web browsers are better than others, yes, but these browsers are free anyway, so what's the point if one is more popular than another. Believe it or not, the business of Web browsers is pretty important, not to mention occasionally profitable. The popular websites of today may also be the operating systems of tomorrow.

Shop Shield Invites the Public to Try Free Service That Foils Hackers and Untrustworthy Insiders

AVENTURA, FL, Jul 01 (MARKET WIRE) -- Identity thieves may be left out in the cold, now that Shop Shield(R) has launched its beta test. Shop Shield is a new and better way to protect personal identity information on the web, and its many uses promise to excite the imaginations of both the public and journalists who try it out. It works by replacing sensitive personal information with anonymous, untraceable data each time consumers make a purchase online or register at a web site, making the information useless to anyone who gains unauthorized access to it. "For each online transaction Shop Shield creates substitute billing information," said President Steve Bachenheimer, "as well as a unique login identity complete with a temporary email address that can be deactivated at any time.

How to Develop Web Applications with Ajax: Part 1

In the past, web applications were limited because a web page had to be reloaded (or another page loaded in its place) in order for new data to be obtained. Other methods were available (without loading another page), but the techniques weren’t well supported and had a tendency to be buggy. In recent months, a technique that had not been widely supported in the past has become available to a large number of web surfers, giving developers more freedom to develop cutting-edge web applications. These applications, which asynchronously retrieve XML data via JavaScript, are affectionately known as “Ajax applications” (Asynchronous Javascript and XML applications). In this article, I will explain how to retrieve a remote XML file via Ajax to update a web page, and as this series continues, I will discuss more ways that Ajax technology can be us

Bringing the web into the store

A combination of developments—consumers’ use of the web to find products eventually bought in stores, improvements in Internet bandwidth and web-enabled software applications that connect stores to central databases as well as to the web itself, and increased recognition by retail executives of the importance of cross-channel shopping—is leading to more in-store web applications for shoppers as well as employees. The demand is underscored by the fact that most consumers, 58%, use the Internet as their first choice for researching products purchased in a store, according to Nielsen Online. Retailers, meanwhile, are providing in-store kiosks and wireless devices to let shoppers access a store’s web site for product information or to place an online order, according to a report from AMR Research Inc.

RMS and Clipperz Promoting Freedom In the Cloud

mbarulli writes "Clipperz and Richard Stallman recently launched a joint call for action to bring freedom and privacy to web applications. 'The benefits of web apps are many, but quite often users lose their freedom to study, modify and discuss the source code that powers those web apps. Furthermore, we are forced to trust third parties with our data (bookmarks, text documents, chat transcripts, financial info ... and now health records!) that no longer resides on our hard disks, but are stored somewhere in the cloud.' Clipperz and RMS urge web developers to adopt the new AGPL license and build their applications using a 'zero-knowledge architecture,' a framework for web services that has been derived from Clipperz online password manager. A smooth path toward web apps based on free software that know nothing about you and your data.

Managing Business Web Services

Web services technologies form the underpinning for how enterprises integrate with the Web. Integration, however, presents unique complexities and risks. Having sensitive business data flowing in and out of the Web increases the risk of exposure and raises compliance issues. Dealing with hundreds of customers and partners, each of which may require a unique relationship, can create bottlenecks to adding revenue. And as the usage of Web services increases with successful adoption, critical operational and performance problems can arise.
