Browsers? or SaaS?
The online world has become more complicated in these past two years. What used to be a question of "does it support AJAX?" has become "Does it support Acid3?"
Finally, the world of web browsers is beginning to come around and support WC3 standards. I applaud all companies, from lowly Opera (to which I'm partial) all the way to Microsoft (which I loathe and use)
But now the online world is becoming even more complicated. We now have Software As A Service, or SaaS. This cringe worthy acronym is even worse in practice. It's like rent to own furniture without the ownership or the furniture.
I shall, tomorrow, go further into why SaaS is not only the most expensive software that a company can employ, but also why it may be the least cost effective.
