Interesting times for web developers

Thursday, August 7th, 2008 by Chris Catalfo

Here’s an interesting little post discussing the history of web applications, as well as some speculation as to their future: A little reminder or why.

I haven’t looked at what’s been happening with Java for a while, but these notes about Java SE 6 update 10 at Sun Developer Network certainly sound interesting.

I have actually installed a couple of Adobe AIR applications: ExtJS documentation as an AIR application and JQuery documentation as an Adobe AIR application. I’ve enjoyed using them both, as they provide a handy way to keep documentation offline.

These are interesting times, indeed, for (web) developers. So many languages, frameworks and technologies to choose from!
