About time someone came out and said this, good job.
He implied there was a problem, showed some code, but never showed where the problem lies or what it was, and certainly never mentioned any solution.
All I got was some vague "this isn't pretty" vibes.

http://www.rebeccamurphey.com/Most of the stuff on javascript programming is bullshit. "Javascript, The Good Parts" from Douglas Crockford is good. But it is only a start, we need more of that. The majority of books is trying to apply OOP design patterns or plainly translate GoF. I'm sure we can do better now.
