Changes

This is just an idea that has been kicking around in my head. There are advantages to having a service based design. Right now, the heavy coding has to be done in WordPress, Drupal, Firefox, etc. How about a widget server that does all the work, returning the HTML. The only work that would have to be done on the client side is the call to the server. Dependence on a central server has its downsides too, e.g., downtime, but it could play an important role in the "book widget ecology". I have been thinking about designing OpenBook with a separate "server" module that encapsulates the functions I would hope to find on a server someday. --~~[[User:Johnmiedema|Johnmiedema]] 06:31, 12 January 2009 (PST)
