On the First Day of Christmas...

So it's been a while since I last blogged, all the way back in June. I've had some things that I was going to blog about since then, but I just never got around to doing it. It is now Christmas day, and our dinner guests will be arriving in about ten minutes so this one will be quick, but assuredly, I have some things that I will be blogging about over the next couple days.

For now I leave you with the following screenshot of Expedia.ca:

Do take note on how the advertisement is preventing legitimate use of the website itself! It is not possible to use the calendar in this state. The softwares involved are: Windows XP, Firefox 2.0.0.1, and Flash 9. This is definitely one lesson on how not to design a webpage. Don't worry, I have already sent an email to Expedia describing the problem and linking to the screenshot.

Take a look at an advertisement I just saw on Digg:

yes, that's a big white rectangle.
