Sorry, but in my opinion, IBM.com is a very bad example in terms of navigation and user interface. (I know, it is a huge site and the task is very complex...) Have you ever tried to find content in it? Few days ago, I was looking at their PLM section, and depending on where I was clicking, the left navigation menu was not the same (depending on which server I was)... > Finally, have you tried to get to the gallery without Flash or > Javascript? Good luck. No, I haven't tried. Very few people disable Javascript (perhaps some web developers... ;) ). As for Flash, MM is trying to push their RIAs concept, so this is normal. > Frankly, There's no excuse. Nobody is perfect... We will see what MM can do during the following months to improve all of this, especially the speed.
