WBI(WeB Intermediaries) A technology from IBM that provides a framework for intermediate processing between the user's browser and the Web server. WBI provides a middleware standard that can be used for password and privacy management, for transcoding from one format to another, for filtering out content and a myriad of other functions on the Web. Developed in the mid-1990s as a way to maintain a history of a user's Web browsing, it was first named "Memory Browser." It evolved into a programmable HTTP proxy that was named "Personal Web Agent" and then eventually WBI, also pronounced "Webby." How to thank TFD for its existence?

WBI ceo Doug Manoni said "We plan to leverage 'Credit Union Times" market dominance and launch several new products that will make the 'Credit Union Times" franchise even more powerful and resourceful. Manoni added that WBI has no plans for any futher divestitures in the near future. Despite the advertised ease of creating WBI using Web-based course management tools (like WebCt and Blackboard), faculty members and instructional designers working to meet this demand are discovering that the creation of WBI comes at a considerable price in terms of time, effort, and resources. |
