Sarcasm?
Hi :)
I might be wrong, but I'm tending to read the whole review as delightfully sarcastic. Am I right? I can't imagine how Berners-Lee dreamed of a web sequestered by a closed (no matter that there's a "standard" published just for the show) format such as Flash, which is effectively a barrier of entry for new platforms. I mean, of course, all that Flash crap.
Or were you serious?
