Rich Internet Applications, like other non-ria solutions, are pieces of a whole. They are the user interface to the services (i.e. interfaces) exposed by the back end systems. HTML is simply rendering a readable display. While, HTTP is facilitating the protocol for machine usable data. What Web 2.0 and SOA is bringing into the spotlight is the machine interface is just as valuable as the user interface. del.icio.us is a great application because of the storage and socializing of bookmarks, not merely the listing via HTML. However, the deeper question you are asking is can the two goals be achieved using one format. Regardless of the technical advancements, my answer is no. Human beings, outside of the small select uber geeks, are influenced by presentation of content as much as the message. Window dressing is important. Web users do not want to type in 'ls' switches to list content on a favorite blog. They want the information listed in a certain font in a specific section of the window. They don't want to rig a bunch of pipes together. That's the job of the programmer and the client interface. Therefore, RIAs will have a market to satisfy. Two different formats.
