As I mentioned recently, our European Commission takes care of us. And nurtures us. Recently, for example, it created a huge online archive of publicly accessible digital content called Europeana. A library, in other words. Unfortunately, European bureaucrats understand modern realities just as poorly as other bureaucrats do. The library could not handle the influx of visitors and went down. Yet nowadays even a child knows that services like this, designed for millions of visitors, should follow closed beta testing with an invitation-only beta. And only after making sure that everything works properly and can easily handle a steady increase in visitors should the beta be opened to everyone. Then, a month or two later, they can announce on TV and online to the entire planet that the project has launched. They could even hold a grand opening ceremony with great fanfare.
In my opinion, everything above is so obvious that even Eurocrats should have been able to figure it out. But no—for them, the internet still has not been a natural part of life since childhood, as it is for the new generation of Europeans.
