In fact, many different industries have discovered the wonders of XML - and use it extensively to help organize and classify their data.
XML is a markup language - it uses tags to label, categorize, and organize information in a specific way. Markup describes document or data structure and organization. Content, such as text, images, and data, is that part of the code that the markup tags contain; it's also what's of greatest interest to most everyday humans who read or interact with data or documents. XML isn't limited to a particular set of markup - you create your own markup to suit your data and document needs. The flexibility of XML has led to its widespread use for exchanging data in a multitude of forms.
And that's not all! With XML, you can send the same information to various locations - say, to a person using a mobile phone and a person using a Web browser - at the same time. In addition, you can customize the information sent out so it's displayed appropriately on the various devices.
