On Monday we got the server side really simple, in the DIY tutorial. This highlighted the client side, which was a lot more complicated than I liked. We had a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.scripting.com/98/04/stories/simpleCrossNetworkScript.html&quot;&gt;design&lt;/a&gt; for making it simple, in 1998, but with all kinds of other stuff on our plate, we just got around to implementing the new simple way of doing cross-network scripting yesterday. Tonight it works. Until now Python had us (and everyone else) beat -- they had the simplest way to call remote procedures. Now we match them, and I think our way is better, but they're awfully close. Thanks to the Python community for keeping the fire under our butt. In the new way, this is what a call looks like:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;code&gt;[url].examples.getStateName&amp;nbsp;(40)&lt;/code&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;url is a string, xmlrpc:\//betty.userland.com/RPC2" created="Wed, 06 Feb 2002 03:01:45 GMT"/>

If all RSS feeds worked this way your News Aggregator would never have to scan.

		<outline text="The industry response to &lt;a href=&quot;http://davenet.userland.com/2002/02/04/diyWebServices&quot;&gt;yesterday's DaveNet&lt;/a&gt;, which I didn't link to from Scripting News (too much other stuff going on), was pretty awesome. Lots of rushed meetings being set up. It seems people are surprised that we're doing Web Services. I don't know why, I've been broadcasting it for years. Still happy for all the attention. Radio is a charming product. Never seen anything like it. " created="Tue, 05 Feb 2002 22:23:14 GMT"/>

Our internal software platform is changing, and the format you see here will not be preserved. It may get messy for a few days or even weeks, for which I apologize in advance.&quot; I feel sad for Dan! Why do they make him do that. He's a writer. Dan should be using the best tools. Since when is the SJ Merc a software developer? I shudder to think of the linkrot. Last time they did a transition at the Merc, all external links broke. Yow.
