Live Framework and why should you care?
The Live Framework team recently published a short (but to the point) white paper entitled The Live Framework: What is it and Why Should I Care?
“The Live Framework provides a platform-agnostic, HTTP-based, resource-oriented programming model for accessing data. This programming model abstracts away the details of the File System, Networking APIs (for P2P and P2C), caching/storage APIs, serialization technologies, etc. and provides a consistent way to access data on all devices – PC, Mac, Mobile as well as (Windows Live) cloud. “
