Lets face the fact that standardization has its bad sides and one of them is a very slow evolution of technologies. Imagine that the browser had a secured way to access a web service or enhanced data controls such as lists and trees.

But that will never happen at least not in our life time… Imagine how long it would take to standardize a web service calling mechanism or enhanced data controls.. and then to get Microsoft and the rest of the world try to implement it…

Lets face it browsers are not going to evolve any more than the already evolved… So lets return the power to the one thing that can really evolve with no standardization and long waiting… The power of the servers…
