GDL

Many of the technologies that make the World Wide Web possible

have far exceeded their original goals. Envisioned at the

outset as a medium for publishing static text and image content

across a network, the Web is forever being probed, pushed, and

pulled by content authors. By taking for granted so much of the

“dirty work” of conveying the bits between server and client computers,

content developers and programmers dream of exploiting that

connection to generate new user experiences and practical applications.

It’s not uncommon for a developer community to take ownership

of a technology and mold it to do new and exciting things. But

with so many Web technologies—especially browser programming

with JavaScript—being within reach of everyday folks, we have witnessed

an unprecedented explosion in turning the World Wide Web

from a bland publishing medium into a highly interactive, operating

system–agnostic authoring platform.
