Re: You GOT to be kidding me!!

""One point that I don't think anybody has mentioned yet, is that XAML allows you to use the same code for web pages as for applications. This is pretty cool in a way. "

Where do you think this is heading?"

Into further webifying of the windows desktop. The distinction between web applications and desktop applications is going to be blured.

Perhaps the whole windows OS will eventually be a mixture of web services running locally and remotly. For instance that when you run regular apps like MS word, part of the functionality of the program will be provided by web services or something.

I don't like this development, but what do you think?
