Now there's a thought.

What do you think Microsoft will do when their competition start
publishing smart tags and the Microsoft site is a purple squiggly mass
of tags to....... (just who is their competition anyway?)

I'm gonna set up a Linux recogniser!

I don't think the anti smart tags is anti MS I think it's anti
monolithic corporate control.

What's the lists view on the other thorny issue of IE6.0 - the attitude
to Graphic theft?
