    The biggest problem of Json is that it has to be a tree structure data, what you want to do is a graph model!

    If you know Flash AMF, you will understand it's available for more than 10 years!

    The concept is amazing but the technique of presentation is horrible. I have never seen a presentation this bad. I am very interested in the topic but to follow I have to constantly pause. For the moment my comment is to just slow down a bit.
