The Web Sucks

I'm a web developer. I spend half of my time developing, and the other half cursing The Web. Tired of my rants going to the trash bin and inspired by Alan Kay's "the web (...) is a joke" interview (http://www.drdobbs.com/architecture-and-design/interview-with-alan-kay/240003442), I decided to write this simple app. So the next time you find yourself writing awful clutches to overcome the web's static nature, at least you know a place where your frustration won't be ignored!
