Presumably it's the "mundane" you think is disparaging. But it was in reply to this: More of us should be focusing on building simple, focused, small-team web apps that meet everyday needs. Am I saying we should kill our dreams of changing the world? No. But we all need to admit that YouTube, Facebook, Bebo, Google and Twitter just aren’t the norm. Instead of desperately trying to create the next phenomenon, which is highly unlikely, why not aim for something that’s definitely achievable? I.e. The word "mundane" was simply a reference to the concept he introduces of something that is not a phenomenon, but instead meets everyday needs. Considering that the example Merriam-Webster gives of the use of mundane is the mundane concerns of day-to-day life it seems to me I got about as close as one can to choosing the perfect adjective for things that "meet everyday needs." This is why I hate arguing on the Internet. All this work for nothing.
