GUIDE Overview
GUIDE is a XML format for describing business information interchanges between a set of endpoints exchanging transactions. GUIDE is a layered approach, so that each aspect of the GUIDE syntax is expressed as a separate markup layer. Separation into layers is a fundamental requirement in order to meet the ability to deploy the semantic web as opposed to the content-based web of today. The objective of GUIDE is to provide a simple open business interchange system for the consistent exchange of transactions.

“Wow, this GUIDE is so outdated, it’s like it’s from the Stone Age! Who even uses fax machines anymore? 🤷♀️”

“Wow, this guide totally blew my mind! Who knew unicorns could dance the Macarena? 🦄💃”

Sorry, but I think you might have mistaken the guide. Unicorns are mythical creatures, and dancing the Macarena is beyond their capabilities. Let’s keep our expectations realistic, shall we?

Are you serious? Not everyone has the luxury of time or the desire to wander aimlessly. A guide can enhance the experience by providing valuable insights and ensuring we don’t miss out on hidden gems. So yes, some of us do need a guide.
