Could not agree more! We have an mainly internal-only app that I work on that started out as PHP+HTML+CSS only and then over the years JS has been bolted on in various places. At first it was just to make life easier (Autocomplete, minor AJAX) but now we have entire components that will not function without JS and could not function without JS. Recently some devs have pushed for supporting browsers without JS enabled and I have been vehemently against it for a couple reasons:

1) MAJOR parts of our app will not and can not work without JS. Period, exclamation point.

2) Because of point 1 it doesn't make sense to waste dev time on making some views work with/without JS (We are a younger company and don't have time to waste on something like this especially when it isn't public-facing, not to mention QA can't handle testing everything twice).

3) Even if V1 of a component does support both JS and no JS there is no guarantee that future updates will be able to keep feature-parity or have time to code for that.

For me JS is part of the web, not an optional add-on. It would be like saying "make a webpage that works with HTML" (IMHO).

I also feel that it's not fair to complain about the GOOGLE CHROME app store requiring GASP GOOGLE CHROME (Same for GOOGLE cloud print). Not shit sherlock. As for Apple not allowing their video feeds on anything but Safari+OS X I think this is BS, there is no good reason I can think of to alienate so many people on other OS's especially since I would think THOSE are the people you might want to reach with your keynotes to convince them why they should switch.

So while I like the idea of this Tumblr I can't help but think the JS/Google Chrome examples don't really fit and distract from the overall message. To be honest looking through the Tumblr again the ONLY valid concern is the one with Apple's keynote streaming, the other ones make complete sense. How is it Google's fault that they are pushing the envelope in terms of what is possible, even Google doesn't have the time/resources to make every one of their ideas (which may or may not make it long term) work across the board and that is their prerogative.
