For those of you who don't understand what I was talking about four days ago in The Case Against Web Applications, please go read Joel on Software.

Joel Spolsky: The bug: often, the timing is such that the Google Suggest popup appears after I type Joel but before I click the mouse, so I think I'm clicking on the "Google Search" button intending to search for, say, Joel, not that I would search for myself, after all, I'm right here, but I'm really clicking on the popup listbox item for "Joel Turner", whoever that is. Any relation to Tina? Or Bachman?

... That's what I meant by "raising the bar."
