    I think BARF On Rails would be awesome.

    :-)

    I agree that "web 2.0" is one of the most generalized and overused phrases ("health insurance reform" is another) in the recent years, even within the internet engineering or product folks. As pointed out by your anecdotes, the confusion seems to be between these few things:

    * dynamic HTML (even before or without AJAX)
    * AJAX
    * user-generated contents (possibly with the experience enhanced with dynamic HTML and/or AJAX)

    I recommend http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0 for the first-time user of "web 2.0".

    You know, there's a certain poetic beauty to the idea that BARF is driven by lots of feeds.

    it's only a matter of time, of course, before "BARF 2.0"

    Hmm let's see if this comment submission reloads the whole page or if it uses AJAX...

    Looks like it reloaded the whole page. Took about 8 seconds. Lame.

    Sorry, AJAX / Web 2.0 is a good thing when people do it right, like preventing very slow entire page reloads just to add 100 bytes to the page.

    bq. AJAX / Web 2.0 is a good thing when people do it right

    Of course it is. I believe you're missing my point.

    Hehe yeah, I do get the point, I guess I'm just being snarky. Ignorant/clueless people are everywhere... personally I just ignore them!

    This is an actual phone conversation I had earlier this year...

    Recruiter: Hi, would you be interested in a position as a front-end engineer at our awesome startup?
    ME: What is your front-end written in... JSP? PHP? Perl?
    Recruiter: We use AJAX.
    ME: ...
    *CLICK*

    If your recruiters don't know the difference... good luck to you.

    Would you mind if I ported BARF on Rails to BARF.NET? I love the Pattern-Oriented Agile Aspect stuff, y'know, and a BARF-POAA implementation could be totally cross-platform, it would end up everywhere.

    Ajax-Schmajax, this is just another marketing meme that caught on with the ignorati. Kind of like religion. It's only a matter of time until some 2.Ho apostle shoots up an officeful of old-stylers over, say, the use of too many tabs in their source. Me. I'm just waiting for the rocket---the one that will take me back to frikkin' EARTH!

    I recollect, one senior fellow saying to me recently.
    "Have you seen that video rental site ? i heard its web2.0 enabled"

    :)

    BARF really comes into it's own when paired with a system of linked Unix terrabyte servers. It is my hope that he framework I am working on to facilitate this, BARF on Sluts, may well increment the version number of Web.

    And here was me thinking Web2.0 meant sans serif fonts and gradient-filled round-cornered text boxes.

    how long before Gartner proclaims that BARF is "enterprise-ready"?

    i can see a few SOA/BARF "enterprise mashups" already.

    Those of us of a more discerning bent are already all waiting for Web 4.71. Now it appears we need to wait for Barf 4.71 too!? Shame on you for delaying the eschaton.

    So you are saying that BARF is the SOAP protocol for Web 2.0 in Iran?
