An interesting list of Web 2.0 APIs

The amount is quite impressive.

So, it seems that original vision projected by SOA and WebService is reached by Web2.0 Tools. Consumer market force has overwhelmed others again. A service will be used as long as it is useful, and those writing most useful services seem to not care much about WSDL. And this is a market originally intended for WebService runtime/tool makers.

WS-Specs should really accelerate their pace for standardization. Currently WebService is still not easy to use and robust as their Web2.0 counterpart. That has to change. Fast. Or this market will be lost to what used to be ridiculed "unreliable" technology. Gosh, as for technology availability and scalability, who has an edge over Google?
