How about Xforms?
Now we can write a Sudoku Player with Google Gears and play Sudoku on/off line.

Use XForms to create an accounting tool, Part 6: Wrapping it up
by Nicholas Chase

The game [Sudoku] is over. XForms is in serious [accounting] business.

This six-part series demonstrates how to leverage the power of XForms in conjunction with MySQL and PHP to create an online accounting tool called X-Trapolate. Every good programming technology possesses a range of problems it excels at solving. This series highlights some of the problems that the XForms solves effectively, such as the need for live calculations and greater interactivity. Part 6 of this six-part series takes a final review and lessons learned approach, making sure there are no gaps in the final application and looking at future possibilities.

XForms and the Chasm What XForms Need to Become a Mainstream Technology

Moore also noted that both early late majority buyers would be more willing to use a technology if it was buried deeply in a complete solution. That way the IT managers don’t have to sell the technology to management, just the solution. Similarly, once third party developers start building accounting or complete solutions for vertical industry using XForms the buyer will not need to know or care how the solution is being delivered.

XTech2007 - XMLForms - do I need them?

Now in XTech2007 - arrived in time for the afternoon session of XMLForms by Steve Pemberton. XMLForms allow you to pass XML into/out of forms rather than relying on HTML. In includes things like validation - if you tell it something is a date, t5hen you can check in makes sense as a date. And there’s stuff about credit cards, etc. So it makes sense to adapt them for - say - chemistry so that we can check data and molecules on submission.

Canada Hosts WWW2007

Plenary Speaker: Tim Berners-Lee
Title: The Two Magics of Web Science
Credit: iw3c2.org

It sounds like a blufr question: Do you know that Canada hosts the 16th International World Wide Web Conference?
no way!
way!
WWW2007: 8-12th May, Banff, Alberta, Canada

Welcome to Canada!

A year ago we posted WWW2006: Future of the Web is eXtensible Collaboration material, and, now, we are ready to move from the semantic web to the web science.

Tim Berners-Lee confirmed as a plenary speaker. He will address the emerging discipline of Web Science, and the global opportunities provided by the Web.

The Two Magics of Web Science
Abstract:

Web Science, of course, is largely engineering, as is computer science. But Web Science is different. When you design a new Web technology, it involves both technical protocols and social conventions. These work together to produce the new system, a computer-mediated interaction between two people. The first magic (process we don't understand) is when that interaction between two people scales to produce a new macroscopic phenomenon. The link between the microscopic and the macroscopic is fascinating. When we look at our macroscopic world and sigh, and wish it were better, it then takes a creative magic to see what new microscopic design could have the right effect. The creative leap of many neurons, and the collaboration of many people are the most exciting parts of the whole process, and what the Web has been about from day one.

WWW2007 has a five-day structure (Tuesday to Saturday), featuring 12 tutorials, 8 workshops, 4 plenary speakers, 111 refereed papers, 119 posters, 7 panels, and 10-12 invited industry speakers, 940 delegates, from 40 countries (including 6 from Russia and 117 from Canada).
