A little too strong, maybe but I share the feeling  If you use Flash as a principal user interface, you have to be a clueless fucking idiot. There's nothing worse in the world than trying to decipher moving, gyrating widgets created with 2 pixels high fonts by a team of of underpaid web designers with nothing else better to do with their time.

Tim Bray throw a challenge: find the killer app that will launch RDF. The price is the domain rdf.net. RDF has ignored what I consider to be the central lesson of the World Wide Web, the “View Source” lesson. The way the Web grew was, somebody pointed their browser at a URI, were impressed by what they saw, wondered “How'd they do that?”, hit View Source, and figured it out by trial and error. This hasn't happened and can't happen with RDF, for two reasons. First of all, the killer app that would make you want to View Source hasn't arrived. Second, if it had, nobody could possibly figure out what the source was trying to tell them. I don't know how to fix the no-killer-apps problem, but I'm pretty sure it's not worth trying until we fix the uglified-syntax problem. 6:54:33 PM      comment []

XUL. Ryme with cool. XUL - The ‘Net’s Biggest Secret. Harry Fuecks, the same author of the last two XUL articles we mentioned has a new article posted on Sitepoint geared towards beginners entitled: Introducing XUL - The ‘Net’s Biggest Secret. If you're wondering why we're constantly promoting XUL here on Blogzilla, its because we think XUL is really cool!... [Blogzilla - a blog about Mozilla] 11:31:59 PM      comment []

Tim Bray: Where Newspaper Stories Go When They Die. Doc Searls has been at the center of a bunch of discussion about big-name print journalism contents not being on the Web for any usable time in any usable form. Well, I know where they go when they die, and it's not to heaven; I'm astounded that nobody else has picked up on the basic dollars-and-cents issues here.... [..] But bear in mind that these are businesses. They'll make the move when, and only when, the money says to. Abstractions like Web Citizenship are not part of the equation.[ongoing] 11:56:50 PM      comment []
