.mob domain - stupid stupid stupid

I can't believe there is support for this stupid idea: http://www.techworld.com/news/index.cfm?fuseaction=displaynews&newsid=1196[^] What next? A separate domain for websites that contain flash? This is going completely in the wrong direction, you should be able to take any device with a browser, point it at any regular website domain and the web server handles correct display for that device, anything else is just a stupid annoying waste of time for users.
There is much to be said in favor of modern journalism. By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community. - Oscar Wilde -

Marc Clifton VB is like a toolbox, in the hands of a craftsman, you can end up with some amazing stuff, but without the skills to use it right you end up with Homer Simpson's attempt at building a barbeque or his attempt at a Spice rack.
