John Resig shows us the right way to complain about something… by not even making it appear you are complaining, and offering solutions.
His post on Easy PDF Sharing nails it by saying he loves something (SlideShare) but then asking how it could be improved, and and offering a solution as well (with working code.)
To SlideShare’s credit, they are pretty open to people’s suggestions. When I mentioned them last year, they commented on my post right away, which is always great to see.
I’m really liking what John did, and I’ll see if I can tie into it with my workflow of using S5.

Sure, but, Pete, if everybody offers friendly, helpful criticism– actually, that would be kind of nice.
Damn. I think I just saw the flaw in my whole shtick.
