Well, I think you can break it into two parts. I see the underlying tech getting better, making it easier, and making it faster. Look at the HTML dialogue element as an example.

So, “the path you take to get there” CAN be much improved as a developer.

Now, as a user, you may find that sites that could be simpler are much heavier and complex than you want them to be. My question is why? My argument is that both users and producers of these sites WANT them to be more complex. Which means blaming the technology is misplaced.

Certainly we CAN still make the sites that ran in Netscape 4. Why don’t we?
