Well there is a lot of talk about thin client, web 2.0 and web 3.0 , But do we need things other than these on the web. I think Yes.
As a User
- More Quality and (equally important) less content
- Less pages ( and clicks) more content
- Standardization
- Independent Tabs.
Imagine You are browsing the web with 10 tabs open. Suddenly you click a link and your browser gets hanged or worse gets crashed. One faulty tab and all your working tabs are gone. There should be some solution to the problem.
As a Web Developer
- Browser aware HTML includes
Its normal for a website to contain many pages with exactly same header or sidebar. For every single page you visit on these sites the HTML for these identical page components have to be downloaded.
<include “right-bar.html” /> type of HTML tag should be there that can do a trick in this situation. Server side includes are not useful as browser is unaware of such includes.
- Implementation
Thousands of lines is being coded daily (most of which is open source) but is it being implemented as vastly? How many of the sites are using JQuery or any other evolving library.
- Semantic Control
Everyone is just concerned about the syntax control. XHTML, table-less design blah blah. Is a site with W3C standards complaint syntax worth if it contains no useful information?
