RIA battlefield: and the winner will be....?

  • Article

This very interesting "Joel on Software" (non-MS) article looks back at the lessons of PC history to determine what the critical success factors will be for the winner in the RIA space.

The author shows that all the same dynamics and forces are in place now, for RIA, as is was back then with for example "Lotus 1-2-3".  He also describes the need for a "RIA SDK" that will play the role of unifying framework that Windows or Mac played for PC applications (and this is also the real thread for Windows).

Very interesting reading, definitely worth the 15 minutes investment of your time!
