"mum don't cry; they are only pearls""If you pay peanuts, you get monkeys."James Clark on JSON and XML.

"When you look at the bang for the buck provided by XML and compare it with JSON, XML does not look good."

Balanced; well worth a read. Thanks to Heinz for the heads-up regarding James Clark's weblog.A couple of simple things live.com might want to get right (should they ever intend to provide a competitive service; something I'm not particularly convinced of given the exhibited attention to detail [or rather, lack of]).

a. If I click on "Search only", remember that setting and don't expose me to 1997-style portal hell (or a 2007-style Google Personalized Horoscope Homepage proto-hell) every time I visit the site.

b. Why not make that "Live Search" header a link? Not so hard.

c. If you offer me a "FREE toolbar for better protection against scams and virus" (sic), don't do it in the form of a Windows executable, lest I might come to view you as a scam too. Or virus. You know, it's not so hard either.

In related news, you can now test-drive a new Google design.
