Kind of an interesting article from a friend of mine. I have not
read all of it or thought about it too deeply, but I thought it may
interest others so I am passing it on. Alex is, FWIW, a RoR
fanatic. :-P

I think you've got the basic thing right -- the web is THE
computing platform. Mainframes, desktops, client/servers etc. are
legacy.
There's plenty of talk/buzz nowadays about the Web 2.0. What Web
2.0 really means is that people are beginning to realize that, in
order to do computing on the web, we absolutely don't need those
tool vendors (i.e. Microsoft, Oracle, Sun, IBM, etc.)
For any 'starting from a clean slate' software development effort,
I think it would be rather foolish to go with anything other than
the native web development. And by native I mean <a href="http://

oriented-to-resource-oriented-programming/">Resource-oriented
programming</a>.
