Brad, Hadn’t thought about it like that. Still, there’s definitely a benefit to a unified interface.

I could only see the obvious solutions:
- Only support synchronous mode.
- Make the API support async as well, or introduce a second AsyncStorageProvider interface. Maybe async mode is also good for some local storage purposes anyway.

Michael, I’ve been thinking about how to hide remote storage providers behind the StorageProvider API; the one problem is that the get() and getKeys() methods returns their values synchronously, while you would want these to be asychronous; having every method be asychronous, though, is a pain in the butt for normal, local programming. Do you have an idea on how to resolve this?

Client side storage using Dojo

It’s a very handy library. How about Storage Providers for online services like S5? (wrt S5 Javascript Bindings post last week.) Seems like they’d fit the abstraction just as easily as the local services.

I highly recommend reading Brad’s post on his blog. What he has achieved is practically a miracle. I know he says dojo.storage is beta, but it seems far more tested than most beta stuff people throw up to get buzz. This is going to save all of us a great deal of time.

It’ so funny, 3 days ago I was bemoaning the fact that dojo news was sparse. Then bam, three big Dojo stories 3 days in a row. Thanks to ajaxian.com for keeping their eye on Dojo. Now if the documentation could just….
