RIP Saint Back Button

On thing I'll say about this whole Web 2.0 business. The back button just doesn't do what it used to.

It's not the saviour it used to be in rescuing us from bad navigation and the occassional brief digression. But, in fairness, our dear back-button was built for a different time. A simpler time.

So, here's to you Saint Back Button, you served us well.

We'll miss you as we go boldy forward into a more asynchronous beyond.
