Yikes. Yet another Javascript Hell, I thought.
No, it's not Javascript-the-language what I don't like, but
this blurring between Web page and full-fledged application,
unfurling at the user's browser while dynamically sucking up
bits and pieces of the Whole Internet, with ill-defined
licenses, provenances and *intentions*. That's why I always
browse with Javascript disabled and run away when a page
presents itself as a black (or white) hole.
Then... I went to try it. It actually falls back gracefully
for the non-Javascript folks!
So thanks for catering to us dinosaurs :-)
Note to self: always try before ranting...
Cheers&thanks again
