Cape Clear's O'Toole Demonstrates Development Of Java Applications Inside Microsoft PowerPoint.Business Editors Enterprise Outlook Conference BURLINGAME, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 27, 2001 10-minute Session At Enterprise Outlook Conference Shows Reality of Web Services (1) Loosely, any online service delivered over the Web. Such usage appears in articles from non-technical sources, but not in IT-oriented publications, because definition #2 below describes the correct use of the term. Model Cape Clear Software's Executive Chairman Annrai O'Toole today demonstrated how Cape Clear's Web Services tools enable mainstream users to develop sophisticated Web applications within familiar environments during his presentation at the Enterprise Outlook conference. O'Toole constructed, integrated, and customized a complex Web-based application, live on stage, using only Cape Clear's software and Microsoft(r) PowerPoint(tm). The whole process took under ten minutes. "Enterprise software is too hard to use," commented O'Toole. "If Web Services are to become ubiquitous, then they must be capable of being created by people like myself who are not skilled Java(tm) developers. Business logic should be controlled and developed by business people. With this demonstration at Enterprise Outlook, you can see how Cape Clear's technology empowers mainstream power users to build their own Web Services. It also shows how traditional concepts of IT languages, clients, and servers are undermined by this new paradigm New Paradigm In the investing world, a totally new way of doing things that has a huge effect on business. Notes: The word "paradigm" is defined as a pattern or model, and it has been used in science to refer to a theoretical framework. . The ability to manipulate Java from within a PowerPoint presentation is for me the ultimate proof point that there is a new game in town -- Web Services."
