I'm not sure what he means by "static" in that article, but I guess he means any global state ("static" variables in Java, which he seems to be referring to, are jut namespaced global variables).
I agree that global variables have issues, but to answer the question in your title, they ARE useful (certainly the "singleton pattern" is not an improvement).
