That video is very cute.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
Tim's video is adorkable.
It really is. FAQWife didn't think she'd watch, but after seeing the video, I think she's sold.
I don't understand -- what's different about the format? It's still threaded with X posts per page. You mean because of the sidebar?
The colors are eye-twisting, but that's a different problem.
There's just something about the Prospero boards that I've always found awkward. I don't find it as user-friendly as the other types of forums I've used.
just watched video. I (heart) Brian Bloom ever since he was on As the World Turns.
I can't tell if I'm seeing all the pages, or what threads are available. I'm never quite certain where I am. I like more linear-leaning threaded, like this board and TWoP.
The breakdown between the topic areas always confuses me as well on the sites that have areas you can jump between, like "General," "Cast/Crew," etc. I tend to lose track of where I am, as well, and I don't always jump to the new messages in threads I was looking at earlier.
Hm. I just find usability stuff interesting -- I like being able to move from one thread to another without having to go a level up to a menu of topics, but maybe I'm more used to that style from lurking on Delphi forums.
Tim YouTubed again.
Since th OB was the first forum I ever posted on (I was here first, but just as a lurker supporting you all in email), I find it very easy to navigate. I think it is just all in what you are used to.
