Tim O'Reilly's tech wish-list for 2004. Open data, open APIs, scriptability, Dashboard, and a new HIG for a networked world. Excellent list, although remem continues to be forgotten when people discuss Dashboard.
My Wired News Wishes for 2004:We need some equivalent to the original apple human interface guidelines, updated for the network era, to state a vision of the consistent behavior expected of internet era applications. These best practices include Rendezvous (zeroconf) for local area discovery and sharing, scriptability, exposing data via web services, consuming data via web services, consistent cross-application integration and services.
