The Web Page as a WYSIWYG End - User Customizable Database-backed Information Management Application
By David Karger, Scott Ostler, and Ryan Lee (MIT)
Summary:
The article discusses the application Dido. It has a AJAX like visualizer/editor and a "metaeditor" for WYSIWYG editing. The primary function is to allow the edit of data in a web browser and customize their information management in real time. A user can copy, edit, or email their application and share with others without needing a specific installed program. It all lies insides the HTML. Also, a walkthrough is discussed in the article and explains Dido's framework called Exhibit.
Discussion:
The idea of web customization is not a new idea, but it seems Dido offers a user-friendly approach. I am interested in trying Dido and editing content to fit my needs. I would like to do some research on the application mechanics and see where this could be extended or applied to in the future.
