Abstract
Although we already provide our services in the Web, we are not seen as service providers. Electronic and human services still don’t coadunate, and that’s in part due to the lack of interoperability and a generic and universally used user interface for services. Web users are still mere consumers of services and resources that other entities provide, being unable to publish their own capabilities in the Web. In this paper we address the empowerment of the Web user with a web services server, enabling him to provide services and interact with other users and electronic services in a complete service paradigm.
