Standards
Standards Are Dead! Long Live Standards!, by John Footen
Computer science professor and author Andres S. Tannenbaum said, "The nicest thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from."
You don't have to be steeped in IT technology knowledge to know how true that is. Even in a relatively focused space like professional media production, we have seen a plethora of standards developed. It may seem blindingly obvious that these standards have value. They enable us to develop products and interchange data.
