Out of the Ordinary

Shrieking, freaking web sites!

Is it just me or are others increasingly irritated by all the extra stuff on web sites?  What really really gets to me are the words that flash or figures that dance across the screen or anything that MOVES.  It feels like someone is waving their fingers in my face while I am trying to focus on the site.  It is getting to the point where I will immediately leave that page and move on.  And this is happening on sites that look very interesting.  If the intent is to get my attention – and keep it – well, it isn't working.

  1. I don’t visit sites with flashing stuff, music or advertising. I immediately leave if I see any.

    I wonder if we are in the majority. And the number of sites with such seem to be increasing. One big ADventure.
