Web 2.1 is here
Excuse me if this is old news:

Re: Web 2.1 is here
Possible yes, practical, I don't think so. An http request for every blink? No way. If someone leaves a browser window open for 7 days and you have it blink twice a second that will work out to be 2,419,200 requests.
Re: Web 2.1 is here
Err, hint: you need to read the browser requirements more carefully...
Re: Web 2.1 is here
I may be dense but the document you posted a link to states:
AndThe server-side blink tag works by using a timed AJAX request, to let a Web 2.1 compatible server update the client document so that the blinking text is turned invisible. This request also triggers another timed AJAX request, which allows the server to restore the blinking text after the requested delay.
So without looking at the specs I may be missing something, however I doubt browsers are going to start caching ajax requests and the document states that a slow sever may affect the blink rate. The word "server" is also used heavily, and I didn't see any mention of "cache".Another note: there are some known bugs in Web 2.1. For example, a heavily-loaded web server may not be able to respond to blink requests efficiently, which will slow down the perceived blink rate. One work-around to this would be to use a high-capacity blink server farm. Hopefully Web 2.2 will address this sort of issue, by layering AJAX on BEEP over SCTP.

a web2.1 compatible server... 
Re: Web 2.1 is here
It's a joke! Sarcasm! Bile! There is no web 2.0, it's all the same smurf as before, only more flashy. (And now blinky!) Just read the browser requirements:
The fact that it actually works and has the potential to be taken seriously is one more reason to stop and think about this 2.0, 3.0 etc. crap.An easy way of checking whether your browser is standards compliant is to check whether the installation files for your browser were smaller than 50MB, or the run-time memory usage is less than 300MB. If this is the case, you should download a more recent browser to get the full Web 2.1 experience.
Re: Web 2.1 is here
Haha funny
I like stuff like this. Only thing is that I'm afraid (too) many people actually will take it seriously.
Not long and I have to change my cards and letterheads (again), from "Web 2.0 designer" to "Web 3.0 designer".
(that's also a joke of course)

Re: Web 2.1 is here
Can someone trademark Web 2.1 before O'Reilly grab it for the inevitable Web 2.1 Conference?
