My ideas about new web technology that can change the future of the world wide web.
On the radio-dev list,
Dave announced DIY Web Services with Radio 8. Of course I had to try this. After a bit of thinking I came up with a useful web service for w3future.com.
The color editor now has a palette database. When you press "Submit palette" the page fires an XML-RPC call to Radio on my home computer. The call adds the palette to a table in Radio, and touches the color editor file, which is then automatically uploaded showing the new palette. I could also have done it with a http POST, so it's not a cool web service demo. But the fact that all this was actually
very easy to build shows that Userland is definitely on the right track.
