Sto leggendo la documentazione di questo nuovo protocollo, e devo dire
che mi "garba" parecchio.

Why not just use XML?
Protocol buffers have many advantages over XML for serializing
structured data. Protocol buffers:
* are simpler
* are 3 to 10 times smaller
* are 20 to 100 times faster
* are less ambiguous
* generate data access classes that are easier to use programmatically
For example, let's say you want to model a person with a name and an
email. In XML, you need to do:
<person>
<name>John Doe</name>
<email>jdoe@xxxxxxxxxxx</email>
</person>
while the corresponding protocol buffer message (in protocol buffer
text format) is:
# Textual representation of a protocol buffer.
# This is *not* the binary format used on the wire.
person {
name: "John Doe"
email: "jdoe@xxxxxxxxxxx"
}
