Google Rules!
Some very impressive products that google is doing. It is not stupid to have developers spend 20% of their time just creating in a category like this. You have to try:
- Google Maps. It is a great example of just using Javascript on the client and having it send XML up and down. The new term of art is AJAX (asynchronous Javascript with XML). The basic idea is that instead of lots of screen refreshes, the Javascript on a web page is silently getting information so to the user it just looks like a client application. The Google Maps beta is keystroke fast yet has all the information on the Internet. That is cool.
- Google Desktop. There is an amazing host of desktop applications. There is desktop search, there is picassa picture searching, etc.
