QotD: soulless lemmings

Posted by Mark | Filed under Links, QotD

While read­ing a blog, I fol­lowed a link they had to another blog whose design they liked. I pulled up the source code of the 2nd blog to try get­ting some idea of how they put their site together and found this delight­ful com­men­tary in the com­ments:

Meta infor­ma­tion was once really use­ful, but thanks to Google it doesn’t do much for your well being any­more. Kind of like com­fort food — it tastes good and it makes you feel cozy but causes a lot of heart­burn and gas.

The meta tags you see blow are mostly for show. All rebuilt from vin­tage 2001 code that was rust­ing out in a for­got­ten web site. The inte­rior was re-stitched by hand and fea­tures an 800 thread count. I’m not sure if the ‘MSS­mart­TagsPre­vent­Pars­ing’ is needed any­more but I left it in as a reminder of how much our world is con­troled by heart­less global copo­ra­tions who seek noth­ing more than to turn us all into soul­less lem­mings with a Plat­inum Card.

Have a nice day!

Quote found on Airbag. Kudos to the Binary Bon­sai for the link.
