Keep adding features so that 1.0 will never come to life!

So much for making "Open Source" user friendly, eh?
Go read his other articles. You'll find much of the same thing.
When he "realizes" stuff, he posts it as "new", and gives it a buzzword. Especially, if it involves technology. THEN he can say "This NEW technology is causing the stuff I just realized".
Now read the article, he realizes that media hypes stuff. He comes up with a buzzword, "Hypermedia". Now he sees it on the net (oblivious that he is hypermedia himself, but that's another story), so he comes up with the idea:
The Internet causes a new phenomenon known as hypermedia.

That the majority of/. dislike Jon Katz's posts, but/. won't can his ass?
What says that this story, by Jon Katz, isn't hyper media, also??

If you don't like it, don't read the comments.
