Well, i missed the class where Bud talked about JSON, but i was still interested in the language, so i found a site that gave me, in addition to the book, some basic understanding of it. JSON, which stands for JavaScript Object Notation, is a subset of the JavaScript Programming language. JSON has two major parts, and object, and a list of values. "An object is an unordered set of name/value pairs." and the list of values would be a list of strings, numbers etc.
