Complaining about broken website conventions while simultaneously breaking them yourself is either ironic or hypocritical, depending on your mood.

The author's webpage has a "x Kudos" vibrating image on the right and side, and if you hover over the image then the page sends a "like" HTTP message to the server. So now hovering my mouse over an element just had me like the author's page. That is way worse than a link with a broken image.




Also odd: You can keep giving "kudos", refresh the page and repeat, the counter doesn't mind. Can't seem to take your vote(s) away though.


the web site appears to be apple-ly designed; however has a lot of design flaws and is disturbing somehow. and the author has weird articles to prove there is a perfect human hand size to hold phones etc etc. ohh we live in the "design ages" dont we....


That seems kinda’ irrelevant, you know, him not being Google and all. He gets to do batshit crazy things because it’s just his own small website. Batshit crazy things are what make personal websites fun. That doesn’t mean Google should do them, too.
