WEB SERVICES: XML'S KILLER APP  | SearchMiddleware Best Web Link
 
Who is hyping up Web services? Hmm...Microsoft, Sun, IBM, HP, BEA, 
SilverStream, Ariba, BowStreet, webMethods...my aunt Judy. I'm 
expecting to see this e-mail soon: "Quit your job and make $100,000 
a year writing Web services in this groundbreaking business 
opportunity." Oh...that one might be true. Okay, so what's behind 
all this hype? Is all this real?

THE MISSING LINK | Naked market reports offer bottom line 

Ever wondered if that anchorman or woman is wearing pants behind 
that desk? A new financial news Web site, Marketwrapunwrapped.com, 
gives your imagination a break, baring more than just the facts. 
Instead of Louis Rukeyser, you get Cindy, Georgie, Kelly and Lisa. 
Instead of Brooks Brothers or Armani, you get Victoria's Secret and 
Frederick's of Hollywood. Yep, four scantily clad sheilas wrap up 
the day's financial news on this Aussie Web site for sore eyes. By 
the time they're done with the naked truth, the girls are truly 
naked. Think of it as CNBC meets the Spice Channel with a dash of 
Hooter's thrown in.
