When I saw your post I was so relieved... I thought I was the only one who noticed. As far as I'm concerned, "web 2.0" is another way of saying "pretty looking crap that loads and runs slowly".

I then decided to start leaving Task manager open to see how much CPU Internet Explorer was using up. Wow, some websites seem to be running massive amounts of code in the background causing my machine to sit at 100% CPU for a minute or two until it is finished. What is going on, is this all down to every Webmaster getting on the Web 2.0 bandwagon. If so is there any way of switching this rubbish of or are we stuck with just avoiding any websites which seem to cause this. Has anyone else noticed this general slowdown recently?
