Hmm. I wasn't around in 2008, but I have a really hard time believing that the mobile gateway this guy wrote has much resemblance to current MFE (which according to
mw.org was created in
2011). And responsive design isn't the be-all end-all of mobile development – many top 10 web properties these days have custom experiences and features for different device classes, not just a single skin that shrinks (Facebook, YouTube, Quora, Twitter, etc.). Sounds like an attempt at self-promotion that inadvertently reveals this dude's n00bness ;)
