intertwingly

Sean McGrath: I normally find myself in agreement with Bruce but not on this one. The way I see web services, its almost like your saying the machine doesn't matter. What matters is the abstraction of the machines behaviour - a "service".

My guess is that Bruce was reacting to a description of a single endpoint which implemented a bazillion services, and made the observation that the endpoint is the noun.  The way to "objectify" such remote procedure calls would be to move the object reference outside of the request.
