I really like what Weebly is doing, and I'm glad to see that they've found an additional revenue stream. Their builder is about as simple as it can get, and yet it will serve the needs of 90% of the people who are looking to build a simple website. More businesses should shoot for the 90% audience instead of chasing after that last 10% that want the bells, whistles, and photon canons. How often do people think they want a bunch of extra features, only to find out that they never really get around to using them anyway?


Are the new interstitial ads on TC blocking anyone else? My experience today has consistently been:

1) Click link to TC article, shown interstitial

2) Click 'skip this ad', taken back to same interstitial

3) Click 'skip this ad' again, taken to techcrunch.com

4) Scan headlines for the article I wanted

Its maddening, am I the only one?


It's been happening to me all day. I first noticed it this morning, when I read the article about TechCrunch being hacked, and for a minute, assumed THAT was the hack.

Had the hack actually been just an endlessly repetitive advertisement, in lieu of any content on the site, I would have considered that as poignant a hack as I've seen.


Happening to me too :/
