RIA (the acronym) has jumped the shark. I find that I can no longer use RIA to describe anything anymore. The definition has been watered down and twisted to the point that nearly any application can be called RIA.

I wouldnt say that RIA applications are dead. They are changing for the better...

Few points have to be said here though!!
*Service-oriented architecture (SOA), rich Internet applications (RIA), open source software (OSS) and Web 2.0 are all
hot and relevant topics on their own. When combined, however, they really become powerful.
*The RIA, SOA and OSS relationship to Web 2.0 is strong. Web 2.0 represents a rebirth of the Internet where more
powerful applications exist. RIA enables these applications by providing a transactional and dynamic user experience.
====================================
All these are what we refer generically at RIA.
just a thought.

RIA was a term created by Microsoft to counter the 'Fat Client' labeling. I guess, today not even Microsoft marketing uses it any more.
