Ignor Marcus, the colors here are just fine as they are, there’s such a thing as too many subtle blue web sites … and one cricket joke is one too many.

Shameless self promotion in a podcast? Who would do that?!

Well thank you Ruth, fortunately I always ignore Marcus on principle anyway :)

“JavaScript is a markup language just like HTML and CSS…”
10/10 for misinformation!

And what did I say that was misinformation? If you are going to criticise at least be specific ;)

I think the quote used is the proposed “misinformation”:
“JavaScript is a markup language just like HTML and CSS…”
I think the point Drew is trying to make is that JavaScript isn’t really a markup language like HTML (and CSS).

Ah I see. Yep, he is right. But then considering my target audience (clients, with no coding ability whatsoever) I try and word things in a way they can associate with. Most of them are familar with HTML or CSS so even though my comment isnt accurate it is something that they can understand. However, I will except it wasnt the best worded. My mistake! Hands up.
