This is a prime example of where it's all headed. Any web designer knows that even though we've come a long way since the plain HTML days, we still need further refinement. Expect further advancement in streamlining between designers, developers, and tech. Print designers, don't think that you're completely off the hook. Awesome article.

It can play many different roles including that of a database, a container, an independent document, and data stored via XML files is not dependent upon any particular software for access. Its a great mark-up. Kudos for the article, which will add to the popularisation of this wonderful langauge.

That should be a clear indication to anyone really wondering the power of XML -- it's a beautiful simplistic language that's only one of many in our arsenal of web design.
