You describe a good web SITE, and I couldn't agree with your criteria more! However, what you don't describe well is a web APPLICATION. Web APPLICATIONS are where the scripting is, generally, needed, and where the UI tends to be more complex. > And most importantly, I want information that I regard as being of great > quality. Anything beyond the seven I mentioned only gets in my way. No doubt, information is what makes it all worth it, absolutely. I might have a nice Mac OS UI, but if all it can show me is Wiggles videos and 3rd-grade math and naked pictures of Rue Paul, the information stinks and the whole thing isn't worth anything to me. > Erik -- who prefers mail2web to GMail.
