Feed Description: James Robertson comments on Cincom Smalltalk, the Smalltalk development community, and IT trends and issues in general.
MMORPGs addresses more of the Web's problems. 0.7 on the Compensation paradox: a viable economy is present, but there is just one bank. 0.2 on the Identity paradox: at least it knows your nickname. 0.7 on the Compatibility paradox: single closed-source implementation. Zero on the Boundary paradox. And 0.5 on the Responsibility paradox, since there is a central but active authority.
Final rating is: modern software platform -- 1.4, modern gaming platform -- 2.1. To build a successor to the Web, don't start with .Net: instead, take World of Warcraft and make it suitable for general purpose use.
