Fucking hell, "i can count the number of good design firms on two hand" or whatever it was you said. Wake up, there is a shitload of good design out there, design is changing because the internet is a very different medium from paper. Fuck I am so amazed at the stupidity in that original statement that i casn't settle myself down to answer it properly. But for goodness sake can't you understand that the ill you speak of is actually a good thing? The only peoople who should be worried about the talentless hacks are those whose work isn't good enough to compete... I think you're real issue is with the fact that these talentless hacks are learning and improving at such a rate that they are soon to become your legitimate competition and that their ability to learn and improve so quickly will mean that you will be supersceded by people who never got the university degree you hold so dear. Don't blame them because you didn't have the foresight to see the changes ahead... Marshall McLuhan and others were talking about for years, things were changing so you could have adapted, could have changed your attitude, but instead you chose to hodl tight to some romanticised paul rand fantasy and now you're going to get fucked on because the world won't need your self righteous, tree lopping shit anymore...
bejesus - that was quite a rant! I feel much better
