Simply put, a
web interface is a
frontend to a piece of software. The implications are great, and there is great
potential for the
use of them.
Common uses are for accessing
databases (like a
message board), or
configuring hardware (like a
Linksys Cable/
DSL router). Web interfaces are every where. As you look up
information on
e2, you are using a web interface to
access the
database that actually contains all the
nodes and
writeups.
