Google Kills SOAP Search API Support For The Profit Of AJAX

Original Post

As displayed in the Google SOAP Search API homepage, Google is no longer supporting the SOAP Search API since December 5, 2006. They encourage you to use the AJAX search API instead. The service is not going to be shutdown as the documentation will remain available on the website for current users, but there will not be any development in the future of the SOAP service. Google finds the AJAX Search API better suited for search-based web applications and supports additional features like Video, News, Maps, and Blog search results. Someone said that AJAX will be the webservices killer ?
