Hi, my 0.02
I don't personally use globals. And don't like "object oriented" code (my code more inclined toward "functional" style). But sometimes I feel like passing various minor values (like settings) all around app via regular parameters is just too much work. So I use "pseudo-global" object which holds various stuff in its attributes. And I pass that object around my code. But that is just one parameter, not myriads of them.
