I was reading the article and the list of three letter acronyms such as WPF, WWF, WCF, and realizing we should just group these together under the name Windows Technology Frameworks or WTF.....

On the other hand, the article brought back a lot of thoughts on projects gone right and wrong. Very insightful and informative. In the end though, I have learned one thing that was reinforced by this article: if it ain't fun, it ain't worth it.

Let's face it: that which inspires us is fun. And when we are inspired, even the largest problems are overcome, but when we lack that inspiration and the fun that comes with it, it's not only drag, but little problems become impossible to solve.

I think that's right - it has to be fun. There might be not-so-fun parts in every project - but overall, it has to be fun. Thanks for positive feedback.

WebKit uses the WTF acronym for its Web Template Framework.
