That's not "everything"! Just wasted ~3 hours trying to set up an account, supervised by me, for my 8 year old daughter. (1) There are some old rules for a user interface. (2) Billions of people know these rules, implicitly, and right away and easily use sites that follow the rules. (3) Google, and others, want a new, different, original, snappy, creative, user interface but in this effort set aside the old rules so that at most only the programmer understands the user interface and in a month he (she) won't be able to use it either. Analogy: They are really good at making pancakes but now are trying to make Bouillabaisse and are getting only rotten sea food. Uh, the user interface has a lot of cartoons in a popular, new style but one of their cartoons shows little girl and some of the underside of her skirt -- dumb de dumb-dumb. If they make a mistake like that, then they are sloppy or worse workers and, thus, no wonder the rest is awful. Time to short the stock? |
