Bastard step-child? This suggests an ignorance of history. Email came long before the Web.
- gavinlynch 14y agoWhat is your point, other than pedantic nonsense? Who cares that email came before TBL's WWW. In terms of current support for modern technologies, as proselytized by everyone's favorite web consortium (W3C), email clients' support is abysmal. If you want to pretend that the first agent to a system will always have the best solution, through virtue of chronology, be my guest. It's a silly and losing proposition.
