"Web Services"... such an ephemeral concept. No one can say what they are.
- O'Reilly Books says that they are open, XML-based server-to-server architectures. - Apple thinks that it's a way to access web content via nontraditional browsers (such as Sherlock 3 or their .Mac desktop tools) - Microsoft must think they mean something but I have no idea what (sorry I haven't been following the MS party line, which is exactly why I asked "how?" -- because I'm curious and have no idea).
