Aaaaah! Yah, and yet another site to vampire my time away from me. Aiee! Must drop in there sometime soon and actually post something! I was user #13... Interesting? Nah, not really.
Aye, my Gossip bookmarks folder is full of places I went for a while, and now only visit once in a blue moon. Some of them carry on just fine, while others are now gathering cyber-cobwebs.
Hmmm... I have trouble getting past all the Flash and stuff that seems to be design flavour of the times. Aside from that, it might become somewhere worth following.
As I said, I think it has potential. I went ahead and joined.
The flash and java gets a bit irritating, I agree, and especially so when you're on dialup. Unfortunately it's a battle we can't win, what with web designers and users all being so young on average. They have no appreciation of the cycles and bandwidth that's wasted, and no concern for those who may be put off or excluded. Invariably when I complain I get told to "Get broadband then." Unfortunately, it's not that simple here.
