Indigo: Get Rid of Microsoft, And You've Got Something


I just went to an Indigo Roadshow meeting at the University of Washington.

It was a very clear, clean informative presentation.

Indigo is really good stuff -- it's a new layer that lets people build
real Internet applications -- like p2p chat systems, and out of process
server components addressible by http...all the 'real' stuff that it
used to take COM or hardcore java to do.

Now, the thing is, the Marketing Dweebs are wanting to subsume this
technology and call it Windows Communication Framework -- it didn't seem
to sit well with the Indigo guys.

Here's what I think: Fuck Marketing.

I say: make Indigo a Linux, Windows, Solaris, OSX univeral layer for
communication based applications across the whole Internet.
