All I've to say is remember this portion of this article:

"What I mean by this is that the .Net platform enables the creation and 
use of XML-based applications, processes and Web sites as services. 
These services can then share and combine information and functionality 
with each other by design, on any platform or smart device..."

As well as this part:

"The .Net platform includes a comprehensive family of products, built on 
XML and Internet standards,"
