Experiential Website

I found a pretty cool website. It works off the concept of "neo-ancient". I guess I know what they are talking about. It is called 2Advanced.com and is quite fascinating as a website. You can even change it to Japanese. I think this would be a good website to experience. Check. It. Out.

Talk of Online Horror Show

So there's not a lot to this article but the guy gets his point across. We want new experiences. We want to build a genre that stays formulaic but evolves. We want something new. We are tired of what we are given. Let us create a new experience. OK, go for it. Create it. But what? Hmm, that is a good question. This is kind of an attack on type though. Type conveys much, but we are leaning towards a more visual layout then?

Krug's Usability

a.k.a. Web usabilty for the A.D.D. What if we like to think about our websites. Personally, I think the web is fun with all it's quirkiness with weird sites but I stress that it is only ok to get lost on the information superhighway only when I'M JUST BROWSING. Like neato art websites are fun, but I think I'm missing the point. This guy pushes the structure of a website to cater to people who have "no b.s." attitudes. And that's cool, that's how we get things done. So, I am learning from this guy. But this has nothing to do with aesthetic. Like, this is focusing on the text side of things. But it is down to milliseconds in this guys opinion, and I'm totally not so important where I CAN'T WASTE MY MILLISECONDS on someones work. That was a big theme of his. Life is a journey, appreciate it. For an example, let's put it this way, if I go to a site that has DEALS tab up on the top, I click it, and the deals suck. Because it is too popular maybe, and too many people see it, that I don't get my deal. Intricacy works sometimes. This is like uniformity of the web.
