Talk about big and dumb...

David Emberton writes about how web standards are big, dumb, and don't work. It very well might be the most mis-informed article I've ever read, and just pure shit. This guy is a tool, and he got paid for this article.
But now Iím fed up. I want the browser wars back. I want to use Flash and PDF (you know, technologies that work) without being accused of bourgeois elitism. Is it really so important to make our Web sites phone-compatible? PDA-compatible? Safe for the flat-footed? No. All that matters is the desire to communicate, and the ability to steal any good thing that gets invented. Like Sputnik.
Seriously. Those are his words. I guess he bills by the hour. I mean, words just fail me. Read through the comments on this article, and you'll see the general backlash against this dick.

Oh my GOD - the beginning of the article is just so ridiculous !

"Communist radicals got a bad rap in the 20th century because they wanted to take over the world and brainwash everybody."

The guy never went to school, and he lets the whole planet know !
