I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

Or as Spike would say, your googlies.

Ok more of a feel for things. ABC is a public media empire. TV, radio, Internet , live performances. I presume the stores sell ABC related merchandise (related to shows, and symphony halls and such.)

The site seems more like MSN than a news site, with a whole bunch of different themed content areas (except transcripts seem to outweigh articles). New slogan: Where do you want to go today... mate?

Why *are* sitemaps bad, plasmo?

I just couldn't think of an example. Nielsen frequently has excellent points, until the part where he takes the fun out of the web. So I was trying to think of something contentious he could say. oops.

the MSN thing wasn't just a jibe. I actually went to a few pages on the site and looked at slate and disney.com and pueblo.gsa.gov and cbs.com to see which it was more like.

No, I just wanted to hear the brilliant logic that would convert me, if there were such a logic; I'm really very easy that way.

How rich is this man exactly? Because with a book about just the front page.. there are endless sequels to be written. I can't wait for "why sitemaps are bad".

Dunno, but can I please boil him in oil t /issues

Ahem. MSN mockers, please do recall how I earn my living. ;P

I did not mock! I said it was more likely to take me to its content areas than John's site. But I'm probably just going with the familiar.

{Edit: I didn't actually say that, I guess, but I thought it was a good model for the type of site I thought John's was.}

John, email received; replied. Different address, though.

Now back to the website talk....

Don't worry, the ;P was there for a reason.
