The top ten most hated features and problems of web sites:

I don't build flashy web sites. I go to a web site for information--to buy, to inform, to get ideas for later purchases. The only thing I like better than a button that says "Skip Flash Intro" is NO FLASH INTRO!

But my long-time clients tell me every time we talk shop that they get so many compliments about their web sites--that they are easy to use, that all the info the client wants is right there--

Sigh. I don't think I'm staying in this biz much longer--I need to take about six classes just to answer ads anymore. But I don't think I need to add flash to my own site, when I build the new version.

I want to offer words for thought, not pyrotechnics.

I'll save the fireworks for July 4th and New Years... ;^)
