What I Don't Like About this Site
- The navigation sucks. I have no idea what I'm going to get if I click "Learn". And the tiny home icon is so hard to see that it took me looking at it for 30 seconds before I realized that it wasn't simply a mistake.
- The rotating headline piece, while interesting (and not Flash) is confusing. The headlines below it don't make sense ("Together we can - Help the victims") and they are a bit misleading. Plus, they are each giant images, so anyone viewing it in a screen reader or text browser will just see the headlines and not understand why this has such a prominent placement.
- It's hipness. In some ways, it feels like my grandmother calling something "rad". She might get the intonation correct, but it's still a bit odd. The problem is that while the site has cool modern things like a blog, it doesn't seem to have the features that make those useful - like an RSS feed. I would totally subscribe to a feed of the Obama Blog, or the Obama news, or even the Obama events. But I can't - at least I can't from the links on this page.
Oh, one other thing - 310.05 seconds on a 56K modem?!?!? Holy cow! Barack Obama supporters must all be on high speed connections!
