Good quick read. Worth it for the line "See these telephone numbers? I need data like that. I don't care how you get it; I'm just showing you this particular representation, because you're a programmer, and we rarely understand each other."

If I ever invent a time machine, I want to go back to my first year at the day job and say "When the boss says he wants a 'web service', he really just needs data from page X displayed on all these sidebars. Use an iframe and you won't be stuck in the office doing overtime for the next 3 months fighting Java's ridiculously obtuse frameworks."
If I had a time machine, I'd do something much cooler.
With a time machine, you could be doing that and something much cooler, simultaneously.
