My problem with the majority vs minority argument is that it implies the status quo will remain as it is for a long time. 

I’m fairly convinced that the web is on the brink of radical change. Partly due to Apple’s stance, which I applaud. Flash will die “quite soon” (vauge statement intended), at least as a “full web app”‘ kind of setup. I pointed that out to Tim as well and asked whether they’re content with redeveloping the website every 5 years. Being the contracted developers for SK, they of course prefer that scenario. 

It’s an old thing… bad design / code secures your job for a longer time, than a well written, easily maintanable site.
