E-mail Address as Web Page URL
Exyst just announced a new method of looking up URL's that will be of
particular interest to the LDAP community.
It's most easily understood by trying it out. Open a browser window and
simply type my e-mail address as the URL.
darryl@exyst.com
You will see that it is redirected using javascript to a web page based on
the user name 'darryl'. This has tremendous value in the world of
directories. This same method can be applied in displaying ldap entries
through a browser so that users don't have to worry about the syntax of
ldap.
For companies that use Exyst as the web page display of directory entries,
the cost to use this technology method is free. For companies interested in
licensing this technology method, the cost is nominal (we're not looking to
make our profits off the licensing, but we do want to get the recognition
for this idea). The patent process is underway, so please no unauthorized
use of this technology method.
