client in client/server internetworked computer systems means client, like your machine, the one in your face right now.. server is the computer on the internet that sends you what you want..

[edit] twexter

twexter is a client software that works in your browser.. twexter makes it easy to make and share twext.. the method is simple, and so is the user interface..

now all we need is the software to make it happen.. Gabriel is writing a twexter client in javascript.. finally, i'm starting to learn javascript.. and twexter can easily be made in other languages like ruby or python..

the advantage of javascript is it works, there's nothing to install.. and it can easily integrate into installed applications, like wordpress..

so many twexter varieties are possible but what if we can work with one simple set of data?

[edit] data

data is a critical part of any system design.. for example, xml is a single data type lotsa programs can work with

[edit] json

json is like xml but fast.. thanks to Gabriel, we can now write twexter data to json, which is great for machines.. but can we make the data better for humans?

[edit] d0d0

dodo data is data for humans.. like translators and language learners.. like 90% non-technical, meaning not up for mysql.. we're talking flat file.. dodo is an easy way clients like you to store twext on your own machine.. simple tools can sort it.. while we test these tools, the simple spot to save twext data is on a server..

[edit] share

we the spot is the client, coolness can happen: p2p, dodo://, etc.. simplest for now is probably we just to write data on the server..


client-side ruby and python applciations are promised by the end of this year in silverlight
