Web 2.0 Technologies: Clients
Web 2.0 Technologies: Clients
An Introduction to Web 2.0 Clients
Following yesterday's big release of our Web 2.0 developer tools; I wanted to write about our experiences building support for the various Web 2.0 technologies available to developers. If you downloaded our tools-- or just read the product documentation or viewed the screencasts-- you'll see that we support just about everyone in the Web 2.0 developer world: Apple, Microsoft, Google, Sun, Mozilla, Opera, Yahoo!... all of them.
In the next blog entries, I'll write about the strengths and weaknesses of the widget/gadget systems from Apple, Opera, Microsoft, and Google.
I'll also discuss the next generation of Microsoft's Internet Explorer and its WebSlices technology. And we will look at the Web 2.0 client technologies coming out of both Sun and Mozilla labs.
Not stopping there, I'll also discuss Adobe AIR and JavaFX Script. And since we've been on the forefront of Safari on iPhone development, I'll write about the real issues of mobile Web 2.0 support by Apple.
So if you want to get the real scoop on these technologies-- in the context of Web 2.0-- come back.
