Seriously damned fine DHTML: Oddpost - go to the demo, not surprisingly a couple of the people were at halfbrain.com. posted at: 5:08:34 PM   Clemens Vasters has some interesting observations on InfoPath that indicate that it might well be suitable for forming a part of a survey infrastructure. The (maybe better) alternative i XForms which has the 'merit' of being a standard, just not implemented by anyone and apparently not implemented by InfoPath. One could add XForms support to IE/Zeepe as namespace behaviours - it has already been done by FormsPlayer (IE 6 SP1 only - why?). posted at: 9:23:15 AM   Boycott Google. is Gavin Sheridan's view. After Google's purchase of Pyra there seems to be a spot of paranoia 'bout, but as DC Greg observed, citing good'ol Mr Winer is not necessarily safe: It's important to note that Dave Winer never (publicly) had anything but glowing, postive things to say about Google until Google acquired Pyra, his primary competitor. (See http://scriptingnews.userland.com/backissues/2003/03/06#weaningOffGoogle.) Dave Winer is certainly not an unbiased commentator by any means.   posted at: 8:48:57 AM
