> I'm liking the webservice idea for this type data. Kewl! Denny....just don't forget...any reliance on external apps (which webservices are) means more potential points of failure and coding to deal with it ;-)
So yep...they can be great...like postal data....great because you don't have to keep the data up to date. If the web service chokes...so does your app (especially if it's calculating shipping rates...hehe).....not so great. Now of course if you pay for a webservice at least you can yell and scream at them if it does tank ;-) Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
