Introducing Soybo.

Fellow PDA enthusiast and developer Adam Tow has released a stream of interesting software, some of it for the Newton, some of it for the Palm. Today, Adam announced the public release of Soybo, a technology which bridges those two hand held platforms, your desktop, your laptop, and pretty much anything else you can throw at it. Soybo is a cross-platform and device independent system that allows applications to publish their functionality as web services. Those services are accessible via any internet-enabled device capable of running a web browser. Adam thinks this will be big. I’m still digesting some the possibilities, but the fact that it’s open and extensible (heck, you can write your own custom service extensions in AppleScript), means that it has some incredible potential. I’d also like to thank Adam for releasing version 1.0 on my birthday. A strangely refreshing coincidence.
