Jul 13, 2012 at 23:21 comment added Ryan Alan, I like your answer but not so much the second paragraph. I mean apologizing for making tech easier is like apologizing for making fonts. Surely typefaces were more interesting when they were handcrafted or even better when ornate lithographs were being crafted by monks and artisans but I would never blame the creator of Univers or Helvetica for making a great product. If people overuse something, that isn't the developers fault.
