I disagree, I think it's our duty to fight off trends in technology that are focused more on marketing than on getting stuff done more efficiently (I don't think Flash necessarily fits in this category). That's why computers were invented, and that's why I buy books on Amazon instead of going down to the book store.
So, whether or not I end up a flash partisan after Royale comes out...I feel the negatives and positives of any technology that affects out industry should be argued about ad nauseum by us. If we don't do it, no one else will, because no one else understands the technology. -- jon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Friday, June 20, 2003, 12:40:07 PM, you wrote: TS> <cfinclude template="kaczynski_joke.cfm"> too tired to think of it myself TS> i think as developers we should accept trends in technology, not fight them off. this is why developers read other developers' blogs, to keep current.
