Marc's blogroll / Laszlo OPML viewer

posted: Sep 17, 2003 7:25:48 PM

Marc Canter's blog now features a neat Laszlo (Flash app) blogroll that runs off of OPML files. I looked at it last night at home, where I have Flash installed, and got a good sense of what it does. It's coolio.

But, today, at work where I don't have Flash installed, I got what I usually think of as the real, "full experience" (i.e., a big "click here to get the plugin").

I don't want to sound like I am harping on Flash, plugins in general, or advocating a text-only approach to the web, but that text stuff is a real common denominator—in other words, I would like to see some "alt text". When I say "I", I also mean my applications . . :-0

title: Flash: sometimes you (we) need to get to know your inner text

Marc Canter posted a response, Living depending upon plug-ins, to my previous post Marc's blogroll / Laszlo OPML viewer. I started writing what follows as a comment on his site, but thought it was too long and would be better here.
