Bad websites

Why do some websites automatically reload? I'm sure they think it's some kind of favor, like we'll miss something important. Idiots. When I'm reading headlines on a news site, I don't want it to reload on me.

And what's with the stupid little pop-up boxes? Bloggers are using Snap, and it pisses me off. When I stop moving the mouse to read what's on the page, a dumbass box will invariably pop up directly between my eyes and the content I'm reading. It's annoying as all hell. Yahoo News has this moronic feature, too.

Stop the cutesy bullshit, people, and let us read your stuff.

Drudge is - IMO - the worst offender of the "reload".

At least he doesn't have the Snap Up boxes....yet. Don't give him any ideas.

Good post Don, I agree wit-choo.
