Hi Alex,
I just asked because I was curious, there is no workflow in my head
regarding JSON. I was just wondering why Jeremy chose the HTML approach
over JSON as I myself use JSON for transfer (and sometimes storage) like
many other people.
Anyways thanks for your hint, I will think about a usecase with JSON ;)
Cheers
Tristan
