The way I see it, you can use Apple's current advertising campaign to put it into context
Prototype vs jQuery Prototype is nice and fluffy, for 'designers' who use macs, and dreamweaver and sit around all day in design meetings coming up with 'great design ideas', drinking skinny lattes JQuery is hardcore, for geeks who use linux and Eclipse, who come up with actual useful sites, rather than just showcases to please managment and drink coffee with an extra shot caffine. P.s I don't mean to offend any mac users, but hey its 'your' company that are taking the p*ss out of pc users. On 6/14/07, AJ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Two stories today from Ajaxian (Ajaxian.com) caught my eye and made me curious: CNN Beta Site: http://ajaxian.com/archives/cnn-beta-site Apple Revamps Its Website http://ajaxian.com/archives/apple-revamps-its-website In both cases, Apple and CNN have gone with Prototype and Scriptaculous. I should say up front I'm a big fan of jQuery and Interface, but I'm wondering why two big sites like this would adopt Prototype when other high-profile sites like Technorati have adopted jQuery. Are there any standard arguments for Prototype that I don't know about? Or is it simply a matter of preference and that's all? Just curious.
