Sod 'em.
: I thought the most successful systems (computer-wise and generally) were
: OPEN systems and the web of all places was suppsoed to be an OPEN system,
: made OPEN by standards like html 2.0 decided by some sort of process, and
: not just imposed by a successful marketing company.
Read the interviwe with Andreesen in Wired. He ranted on and on about how
Microsoft sucked because they imposed standards on people through market
dominance rather than through committees and popular consultation. Hmmm.
Sure.
: I want web pages that ANYONE can read with any shitty browser. .. anyone
: can read period.
Then use standard HTML. I do.
: And now the next phase of Netscape has downloadable hot-java code and
: stuff. Making the web less webby and more Netscapey.
Well, java is a Sun thang.
: I say screw 'em.
Well, like I said above :-)
: I am very interested to know what others think -- So what do you think ???
I've been opposed to them since the first netscape extensions.
