Top Complaints I Have Regarding The WWW.

  • Stop putting age consent and location forms into dropdowns, Now. The PSP store just stopped, why can’t you?
  • Don’t make assumptions based on my originating IP. You aren’t being smart when you do this. Yes I’m in Korea, no, that doesn’t mean you should automatically start feeding me a mix of hangul and hanja. Google does it best with a huge “Google in English” link at the bottom of the page. Figure out a better way.
  • Find a real solution to logging in and logging out of random (non-banking) websites, I’m tired of this. Casual biometrics would make this a lot easier. No, I’m not joking. Say “Hello” to your computer, be identified for the website, be done with it. Find another solution if you hate mine, but infinite usernames and passwords aren’t it. If you store your logins and passwords in a program you’re just working around the problem and already understand why it is a problem.
  • The web has been invaded by capitalists. I wish they’d go away, too.
  • Stop writing http:// into dialogs where I’m even remotely likely to paste into them, because I am going to paste into them.
  • Nytimes, and other sites: I highlight as I read, I don’t highlight to have my focus jarringly removed into a dictionary, a thesaurus, or your genius idea, there, genius.

Bonus:

User generated content has now reached its peak.

Extra Bonus:

“The greenest green in this table represents the highest monthly averages while the reddest red represents the depressingly low ones. Take a minute to look it over and then we’ll give you the guided tour.”

Yes, thank you. I’ll keep that in mind. Unfortunately since I, and apparently an insignificant minority of the population can’t read Satan’s red-green math scrawl, we aren’t fit to interpret your higher-brain function output.

    I can see the colors just fine, but that red-green chart is really hard for me to read as well. I think relying on color-coding like that is just confusing.
