JSON
Web Science[1]
JSON, one helluva cool programming language. JSON in itself stands for JavaScript Object Notation, which basically means that it is used for Notating Objects, duh. JSON is a JS derivative, it uses very similar if not the exact same syntax as JS (example 1).
Example 1 - String Value Application
JS: { name : 'Orest' }
JSON: { "name" : "Orest" }Standards
