File Format Semantics

2002-03-20 16:17:53+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Ya know how we think "what a loser, couldn't figure out how to send an email message so they attached a Word document"? Peter Merholz reports a client with the opposite attitude. I guess I can understand this, the client probably is goiing to print out the various proposals, wave them around in front of a meeting which involves misuse of PowerPoint, and the decision will be made by social posturing. Damn, I'm cynical about business tactics recently.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
