I have been reading about this product called Jayrock that uses JSON...it comes across to me as a new technology/language to replace XML?? Have any of you really smart people used JSON or Jayrock and if so, what were your thoughts about it?
TIA
ummm..nope. I'd be a little leery of anything claiming to replace XML though, simply because XML has become a widely used standard.

JSON finds its main application in Ajax (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajax_%28programming%29) web application programming, as a simple alternative to using XML (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML) for asynchronously transmitting structured information between client and server.

It seems that it's not designed to replace XML so much as it's designed to provide a lighter weight alternative for a sub-set of what XML does.
