I have reviewed quite a few computer books over the past few years and this one definitely stands out from most of them. This is not just another book on web design but one that will really make you think about the design process in a new way.
Rather than continuing to mix the web design articles and reviews in with the problem solving articles, I have now split these out into their own topic page.
A couple of months ago my ISP did something really strange. They took a perfectly good working home page for their site and replaced it with Flash. Fortunately they left one ordinary web link on their page that takes you to a copy of their old home page or I would have been forced to look for a new host. Certainly this stupidity on their part means that I would no longer consider recommending them to anyone else.As I have a Flash blocker installed in my browser, all I see when I visit their home page now is a big F in the middle of the screen and the single link is concealed at the bottom of the page. That F obviously stands for a four letter word followed by another three letter word which is what most people used to do when confronted with Flash intro pages on the front of sites.
I guess using Flash as a home page to drive people away has become so rare lately because people stopped doing such stupid things that some people have now forgotten how stupid it is. Now I don’t know if their home page is just a fancy intro/go away page or actually contains an interactive page that just happens to be written in Flash.
