DaveNet: XML-RPC for Geeks.

Sports Illustrated photo site for the Goodwill Games. This is the Frontier XML-RPC managed LAN.

The site does editorial photo processing, storing the results in a searchable database. I just looked at yesterday's photos, the opening ceremonies, including Natalie Cole, Ray Charles, Al Gore, Ted Turner, Hootie and the Blowfish. Their whole editorial process for photos is running thru this Frontier LAN, visible to the world. A landmark for electronic publishing.

They're doing something unusual from an economic point of view. All the photos are available for editorial use free of charge. If you work for a newspaper, or run a news site, you can use the Sports Illustrated photos. It's a truly open system.

NY Times coverage of the Goodwill Games.

keyword.com, where sites can register keywords and users can use them for free.
