Thanks for the "Review"... would be interested to hear more of these, maybe you can find a group that's doing some really good work in this space.

My guess is that MS wants to develop it's own web-application stack-- XAML etc. on Vista clients; MS-designed SOAP protocols; .NET apps running on Windows servers.

Google and friends are getting there first because they're using already-deployed technology: HTML, Flash, Javascript in any browser on the client; HTTP requests to get data; whatever kind of apps you want (Java, C, C++, Perl, Python, Ruby) running on Linux servers.

Bascially, MS is "innovating" a whole lot, but it wants to innovate the whole solution, and all the innovation is staying within its R&D walls.

If you have an amazon affiliate thing, how about a link to order the book and kick back a few bucks to vizthink.com?

Hi Guys,

Are you saying you won't be doing any more large VizThink conferences? Or that they will be smaller? Or less frequent? Or that you're just going to be working on building the VizThink community more continuously but at a lower level of intensity than the conference planning?

Thanks

Reed

Thanks Ryan,

Sounds good to me (not able to make it to many conferences, but have enjoyed following the site, podcasts, etc. and have learned a lot.)
