Technology in Motion

TIm Bray observes that several previously stable technologies are currently in a state of flux, with many of them on the cusp of potentially changing the way that applications will be engineered in the future.

It’s a great survey of what’s hot right now, but I don’t think that this is a particularly unique situation within IT—there are always new technologies pushing the boundaries of current thinking—what makes this moment different is that several core technologies are moving simultaneously. What potential for a confluence?
