When I have an application in the forefront, that application should stay in the forefront FOR ALL TIME until I switch to something else. Me opening application A then switching back to application B while A opens is not your license to then steal focus from B while A does whatever it’s doing while it’s opening. A stays in the background until I bring it to the foreground. End of story.

Instead, you get all Patrick Swayze and are like “Nobody puts Application A in a corner!”, and decide that suddenly it’s time to just switch to A and send half of the sentence I was just typing to it instead.

So… fix this. Seriously.

Thanks,

So, the word ‘webinar’. Nobody likes it. It’s a terrible word. It embarrasses you and me when you use it.

So let’s stop, eh?

P.S., if you are one of the people that do, indeed, like this word, I have a domain to sell you.

Thanks much,

joel
