Adam,

Sorry - no way I agree with that.  I'd say about 2 to 4 % of users ever look at the URL at all - let alone grasp the
difference between a document and a string of variables. I would say that the difference is not only superflous but a
red herring only noticed by developers.

  Thats definitely part of it. Its also the fact that it is using the
  same template to do everything (at least to the user thats what it
  looks like). Any good professionally made website uses a whole bunch
  of pages. It is really superficial, I know that and I am ok with it
  because thats how nontechnical people think, like bosses and end
  users. I know that fusebox applications can be just as good as others,
  even better, but it still looks unprofessional to the everyday,
  uninformed user. Superficial stuff like this can be found everywhere.
  Power basic makes a function called bloat, it simply makes your exe
  large. They made this b/c their compiled applications were generally
  much smaller than similar application built with Visual Basic and many
  of these (great) applications were being ignored/thrown out by higher
  ups base on the file size and the managers' common misconceptions how
  to judge an application.
