How about a HTTP standard that's actually appropriate to web development? But we all know that's not going to happen!

I am curious, what exactly do you think it should look like?

Wait until all the Bubble 2.0 companies collapse or get bought, then just watch what Google does next (remember, they did the first high-profile Ajax app, GMail)

Actually, wasn't Google Maps first? That was the first one I noticed from a big player. Was funny though, most web development purists kept telling everyone to stay away from Javascript and that you could not depend on it as most people would not allow it... Well, most developers stayed clear for big projects, but at least Google thought it was cool :)

I believe Microsoft Outlook Web Access (OWA) was the first. Yep: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJAX#History

He said high-profile, not many people have used OWA.

Many web sites are still very poorly designed. What bugs me more are the many web sites that are just functional, but haven't progressed much beyond that. Amazon.com is a perfect example--I use it, but pull my hair out at how bad the searching and filtering options are. A big part of the problem is that the nature of being able to continually update your web site allows product managers and company bureaucrats far too much latitude in the design.

Yeah many websites are poorly designed and I agree that Amazon is one of them (I wish they had Google's "Did you mean?" search technology for typos.) But what software, web or desktop, is well designed?

Literally millions of people have been using OWA since the 90's ... and since it's inception, I would say hundreds of millions...

I'd like to see some proof of that.

Well, for instance, the University of Phoenix Online has had over 171000 Alumni, and they run their online classes using Exchange Server via OWA. Take the many governments worldwide that run Exchange, along with all of the commercial interests that run Exchange, you are easily in the millions... Some of these entiteis are in the millions as far as clients go... such as the US Dept of Defense... The US Government runs Exchange, the Canadian Government also. After all, Exchange is the most widely deployed single Email system around for the past several years. I know of several companies that use OWA as a standard for email just because of the ease of deployment. As of Exchange Server 2003, nearly all of the functionality of Outlook was built into OWA. So, within the scope of total exposure of OWA since Exchange 5.5 back in the 90's, I would venture to say that my statement, while disputable, is probably easily proven with research. I'm not arguing, I'm merely stating some obvious facts... I'm sure that you could get additional information from some of the firms that do IT Testing, Auditing and Trend Analysis...

I am simply surprised having never seen a single company use OWA for anything except a few cases of away-from-Outlook cases. On anything but a LAN or a good connection it is pretty useless (back in 1990 I'd hate to have used OWA on anything but a LAN.) It is nice to have but from what I have seen people prefer Outlook Express or full Outlook. I'd like to know how many of the Phoenix Alumni actually use OWA. Looking on their site and one of their user's reports they seem to recommend Outlook Express first with OWA as backup. One user reported "Alternatively, the student can access the classes through Outlook Web Access, but the interface is unstable and doesn’t work properly with many browser." It might be a case like Microsoft reporting that MSN Spaces is the most used blogging system on the planet when in fact they were reporting the number of Passport/Live users who had automatic access to. i.e. X number of people could have used system Y but that is not to say they are. I also think OWA is not "high-profile" in comparison to many web-apps. GMail might not be the biggest email player but they do have a high-profile. Hotmail definitely has a big email market and is high-profile, same with Yahoo! Mail. This is largely down to the specialist server needs of OWA and how it is not used as a public system. Still, you have made me aware that OWA is used more than thought, thanks.

Well actually I think that in that era, we can basically implement part of distributed applications for most people as a widespreaded matter. Currently we run most of our softwares in local and in future we may just buy a license and run them on the server or on thounds knots of the net. One of the most covient thing is that we do not need to worry about our machine might be not powerful enough to run some softwares or game. :)
