Google… are you kidding me?
CADIE was released to the world today, and has what may be the worst website I’ve seen ever. Period.
While that might be kinda funny to some people, I thought it was just annoying.
A list of reasons why:
- If you’re using Internet Explorer and have the JavaScript debugger enabled, you’re greeted by a JavaScript error! D’oh! (also true using Firebug in Firefox).
- Using the W3C HTML Validator, the site has 290 errors and 55 warnings. A colossal failure.
- Background music? What website since 1996 has used a background song? If it’s meant to be ironic, then it’s an epic failure.
I did however laugh at the Chrome with 3D link… that was amusing. As was the suggestion to use INTERCAL rather than actually helping you learn a programming language.
All things considered, here’s some food for thought: Since Google just laid off 200 employees, I hope they didn’t spend too much time, money and resources on CADIE because that would really be a bad joke.
