Web 2.0 Release Notes Missing

I would like to announce that as of today I am changing my name to alastr in order to be fully Web 2.0-compliant.

The term Web 2.0 certainly describes something or other. The importance of Web 2.0 compliance can be illustrated by this graph.

Clear yet? No, me neither. But I have great hopes for the Web 2.0.1 bugfix release.

[BTW That graph was stolen from the del.icio.us blog entry linked above. Intellectual Property law is so000 Web 1.0.]

What will be in the alastr api? Can you also offer XML-RPC and even simple HTTP Get interfaces, I always seem to have trouble with interop doing SOAP.

Your pie chart reminds me of one from Dave Barry’s book called “Claw your way to the top”. I think it was captioned something about probability of Dave’s desk catching fire.
