Susan Glinert's informative and amusing article on XML at creativepro.com: "Given the diametrically opposite approaches programmers and designers have to creating output, it boggles the mind that anyone bothered to invent a publishing solution that plunges both right- and left-brained people into absolute chaos. I am referring, of course, to XML, short for eXtensible Markup Language."
I can just hear the Big Boss demanding that our materials be marked up as XML. I can just hear it.
And wasn't the GUI invented to spare normal people from stuff like that? I mean, I use Quark or InDesign or Illustrator specifically so I don't have to write PostScript code.
