via Kottke.org: "Yeah, remember them? The end users? The ones that you're building the software for? They don't care about your damn cross-platform interoperability...they want fast, they want features to help them browse the Web, they want an interface that was designed by someone who knows about interface design, and they want a good user experience.

Hmm...an interesting piece about Mozilla by Jason Kottke. Jason admits to being "unfair" in his review. I wonder if he used Mozilla long enough to find the Tabs feature. Did he have a chance to uncover Sidebars?

What about Watson? We need Watson. Watson is doing a fine job of doing the dirty work that Sherlock can't handle.

And by the way, if the end-user does not care about cross-platform interop we owe it to them to enlighten them; otherwise, they may end up being taken down a path they would rather not travel.
