Web Logging Tools
XSLT can do everything CSS can do. Can I find weblogging software that will run on my website? That will run on my laptop? Of course I can. But then I have to maintain it.
Web Site Development
WDVL: Welcome to The Web Developer's Virtual Library!
This site and other like it are not some much the future of software as essential elements in my plan use the web in my work. Web Standards Project is a site devoted to getting developers to use proper web standards.
Enterprise Portals
Transform Magazine: feature: Can-Do Portals Turn Viewers Into Doers (printable version) This is an article explaining how far portals can go. These people are talking about some serious technology here. This is not a minor application.

Post from my mobile phone
audblog audio post This is interesting, but I would also like for it to be transcribed to text and posted. Or I would like to be able to access it with an mp3 transcription tool so I could transcribe it my self.Voice Logging
I am hoping that this site audioBLOGGER: Listen to this combined with IBMs new transcription service Transcription Portlet, could be combined to create a audio to text system. This is something I first started dreaming about 20 years ago.

Remember answering machines? The tape, the equipment, the dependency on electricity? Would you go back? In the future, there will be no shrink wrap boxes of software. Well, perhaps some (what will be left?) Almost everything you want to do will be leased from the giagantic monopolies as a service.

Web Logging
I tried to post a self-refferential comment on my own log site "Future of Computing" - but it crashed blogger. Hofstadter like, eh?
Ontology
Here is an important semantic web site. This one is dedicated to ontologies on the web. The potential change that may result from ubiquitous real time ontological inference is huge.
OntoWeb - index_html
This site seems to be using some kind of portal software.
Semantic Web
Contivo - Home Page is one of a few semantic web sites. I can see the day where a stage of semantic interpretation is almost allways used except in the most well-defined path ways. Even there, consider the history of applications inside the enterprise, with changes in versions, new releases, bug fixes, new requirements, even in the most controlled environments, different components change and get out of semantic synch.
