iPhone and Web 2.0 Applications

Just 2 weeks before the launch of iPhone. Apple is expecting that iPhone will have even a bigger influence in the tech market than iPod. So, Apple boss Steve Jobs is trying to promote it in the best way. He is also trying to make sure that this device gets all the good things. Now, it seems that iPhone will have some of the hot Web 2.0 applications.

At Apple's Worldwide Developer's Conference (WWDC) yesterday, Steve Jobs announced third-party developers would be able to build applications for the iPhone, due for release on June 29th, but only through Web 2.0 Internet standards.

This means their won't be a software developer kit (SDK) to enable developers to write applications that'll run directly in the iPhone's operating system, a modified version of Mac OS X. Rather, the Web 2.0 applications written for the iPhone will operate through the iPhone's Safari web browser.

"There's no SDK needed; if you know how to write applications for modern Web standards, you can go live [on the iPhone] on June 29," according to Jobs.

So, let us see how much freedom the developers get while developing new applications for iPhone.

Are you excited with iPhone? Will you buy one?
