25 hour day

I am a fan of BBC news. They cover stories that you don’t hear about here in US.
However, when I browsed to BBC web site I wanted to puke.

It has all the functionality that I don’t care for…
It lets you customize the site to your preferences (choose colors, etc…)
It breaks down the site into boxes that you can drag around from one corner to another.
It lets you configure which news you want to see.

Who cares, I want to read news. I’m not here to design my bbc web page.

In the end, the site looks boxy and plain ugly.

I say that web designers for BBC need to get together and browse through New York Times or Guardian

BBC’s web site needs an overhaul.

Get rid of all that customization junk.

Choose a clean layout.

Put your news first!

you know what really grinds my gears? questions like: “are you behaving?” well. yes. i’m always behaving. is my behaviour good or bad is another question.
