With a follow up to my Ultra Deep Linking article back in March I can kill a few birds with one stone. The first stone is the recent web based spreadsheet activity, I have failed to write about more recently discovered offerings. In particular I have been very impressed with EditGrid I think these guys are leading the pack feature wise, I was very impressed with their product. I have also conversed with David Lee at the EditGrids's developers blog, he linked me to an article (rethink online spreadsheets) that inspires the EditGrid team and really lines up nicely with Folknology's thinking, it looks like they will move towards that deep linking utopia, dang thats cool!. Also I notice that the light has gone on upstairs at Scripting news where Dave starts thinking about ULE by perhaps using his XML-RPC - Bing! it all seems to be happening I just can't wait for these features to be available as we will be leveraging these in LiveTally to allow users to mashup and remix our stuff. I do have Google Spreadsheet access and will be checking out their offerings also, I don't however expect to be able to have a conversation with them unlike the EditGrid, NumSum, Irow,Numble, JotSpot guys.. ;)

PS I'm hoping Mike does a Round up of the spreadsheet offerings soon.

*Update I have uploaded some of the original Websheet files for anyone looking at the deep linking principles, these files are related to the idea of the microformat standard associated with the ULE for spreadsheets. If anybody wishes to use, copy remix this stuff feel free just let me know what you do with it.
