I recently had a conversation with a friend of mine about all the people out there who are using marketing buzzwords likes it’s fat free margarine. Obviously we’re just having fun at the expense of everyone else. It goes a little something like this:
Friend: have you heard about this new technology called Ajax?
Me: no! what is it? sounds very web 2.0 ish
Friend: okay, it is a “Web 2.0″ technology are you familiar with ‘Web 2.0?”
Me: isn’t that something to do with windows vista?
Friend: Yes, I think so , it is like a new technology on the Internet
Me: you mean the tubes?
Friend: no silly the InterWEb. it is like a network
Me: like my supply chain network. so its a series of trucks?
Friend: basically its similar how can I explain this…. it is like a bunch of phones but there are buttons on the phones and you can write stuff so that is like a network
Me: so i can write to my mom on my new truck powered phone?
Friend: pretty complicated stuff basically but she needs a phone too. i mean, a typewriter phone. basically the InterWeb is going to take over faxing and you can just ajax
Me: sweet. i’m going to start telling people i’ll ajax them instead of faxing
Friend: yes exactly also say WEb 2.0 - say you are going to ajax them web 2.0 style. i think you can use WEb 2.0 and ajax in your programming
Me: no way!
Friend: yeah
Me: windows vista is going to change the world. i better buy some microsoft stock
