XBRL delivers financial filings in the same vein as EAD does to archival
finding aids.
This will definitely revolutionize how quarterly filings are delivered,
understood, and used. I'm glad the media is picking up on it finally. I am
also glad to see that the SEC is requiring its use.

Subject: RAINDrop - Financial Data 'on Steroids'
In today's Washington Post.
By Christopher Twarowski, August 19, 2008
"In the realm of quarterly filings, David Blaszkowsky takes the long
view. He's quick to mention that the earliest form of record keeping
was on tablets in the ancient Middle Eastern civilization of Sumer.
Now, he says, the financial world is about to discover yet a new way."
