XML Points the Way to Open Systems, Ubiquitous Computing

HTML was great for static Web pages (you remember, the stuff you used to read before the onslaught of flashing neon artwork launched an epidemic of migraine headaches among NET surfers far and wide. To produce all this flash, Web designers have been using Java, ActiveX, and other proprietary technologies that need browser plug-ins, such as Macromedia Flash.
