Re: [service-orientated-architecture] eWeek Comparison of SOA and Web 2.0

[Ron Schmelzer]

As they say, Never believe what you read in the press. Anyone following current events in the world would tell you that. Be informed through as many sources as you can (such as great analysts like ourselves, had to throw that in) and then decide on your own. To use an article as a basis for a decision, or to jump to conclusions based on a single quote (as people have done many, many times) is just foolish.
