  Bobo the Webmonkey
  
     <World-Wide Web> What B1FF was to BITNET users, Bobo the
     Webmonkey is to webmonkeys - the mythical prototype of
     incompetent web designers everywhere.  In fact, Bobo may be
     what B1FF became when he grew up.
  
     Bobo knows about HTML only what he has learned from viewing
     the source of other people's Web pages.
  
     Bobo doesn't know what a MIME type is, even though someone
     gave him a hardcopy of the FOLDOC entry for it.
  
     Bobo may have used an HTML code validator
     (http://validator.w3.org/) before, but isn't sure.
  
     Bobo doesn't know what the difference between GIF and JPEG
     is.  He thinks PNG is a foreign country.
  
     All the pages Bobo has designed say "Welcome to [organisation]
     online!" at the top, and say "click here!" at least three
     times per page.
  
     Bobo has used Photoshop before; he doesn't understand why
     people keep asking if he's ever been tested for
     color-blindness.
  
     Bobo never got that "its" / "it's" distinction real clear, as
     you can tell from his pages.
  
     Bobo likes <BLINK>.
