Full disclosure - this is a repost after realising that I forgot to add Show HN to both this and the previous part when I posted that.

I think the logical split I've made between those two areas is a good one since people tend to be in one of two camps in terms of how comfortable they are with all this. Hopefully I can do justice to the second part.

Absolutely agree with this. It's a shame that for the moment such a revolutionary technology is getting so tied up with _super_ shady stuff. For every 10 awful Ponzi ICOs there's a real gem of someone using new tech to really try and push boundaries.

Any thoughts on what you'd like to see in particular? Likely to be more of the same interactivity

Certainly, and I deliberately didn't get into bytes and encoding until after this - I was trying to get across the softer idea that in terms of space-on-a-page-using-a-pen, you've saved.

OP here - I'm seeing 50/50 support for the gifs. I'm keepin my gifs. I like the idea of adding, and will probably implement, a toggle for all extraneous gifs. I love that most of the commentary about this article is about the gifs. Gifs.
