I never got hating on Kanye West, nor Justin Bieber or anyone for that matter. I mean, you can dislike them, but why go out of your way to hate him, like those Anonymous guys did?


Plus his musical work is brilliant at times, but that's of course subjective.

That whole video was laughable. Yes, Kanye is a self-absorbed douche. But to waste 7 minutes of video production to rant on such a tool makes you all look equally petty.

Shut yo face! Princess Sassy Pants!
Is she related to Polly Prissy Pants?

Speaking of finagling it...

I'd like to go on record that I think responsive design blows. Most of the time I hit an Internet page with a mobile browser, I get some emasculated page I don't want. So I try to access the web version to get the features that actually do what I want, and they make it impossible half the time - redirecting me to some dumbed down mobile page.

Just getting that off of my chest...

I'm actually working through the same school of thought with my UX team. Front end design is complicated these days. But the investment in native app development is much more heavy then creating a mobile-responsive (playing nice) experience as you know. My UX team has taken the approach that anything we design must be designed mobile-first, because desktop is a simple given.

I get it. 70% of traffic is mobile these days so you have to cater to that.

But when some douchebag calls me on Google Voice, the responsive versions need to enable me to block the caller just like the desktop version. It should not hide that feature just because I'm on a tablet or mobile phone - which is what it does.

At least I can get to the desktop UI version on an iPad. I cannot with an iPhone. This situations happens far more often than you'd think. Like mobile versions of web sites where the ability to comment is disabled in the non-desktop version, etc.
