Rolling on Chrome

09.11.08 | Comment?

I recently read an article about how software spoils. The idea is very simple. Basically as a piece of software matures, new version are put out. These new versions perpetually change the software. Whether its newly developed features or user interface changes, these changes make the software take on a […]
