For me, as for others, the Net is becoming a universal medium, the conduit for most of the information that flows through my eyes and ears and into my mind.
A proposal to create a universal safety net that includes unemployment insurance for all citizens was released for public comment in December, but it is yet to be implemented.
And the XML, a popular universal language in the Web, is characterised by nicer data storage, good expansibility, highly structured format, suitable for transportation in net.
