May 13, 200917 yr Why are websites getting so big, there's going to be a point where it's just one huge word on a screen. http://www.bigomaha.com/
May 13, 200917 yr Too many designers working on 24" Macs and a huge screen resolution I suspect Saying that most of the sites audience are likely to be on huge monitors so it's probably well targetted?
May 14, 200917 yr I sometimes work on a 32" LCD TV so that could possibly lead me into similar problems, although i do check it on the laptop later. Reaper
May 14, 200917 yr Even if i don't always test on lower res, i do at least compare the look to other major websites so i am aware of the average website appearance. I personally dislike big sites more than ones that are too small although not sure i have seen any that are... any examples of a too small website? Ah i think I saw this before.... http://dot16.pixeltemple.com
May 14, 200917 yr Just to annoy everybody who is messing on the net at work and has a teeny teeny teeny browser window open so nobody in the office knows what they are up to.
May 14, 200917 yr Did you know hat the average office worker spends at least 15 mins a day doing personal stuff on the office internet?
May 14, 200917 yr Author Did you know hat the average office worker spends at least 15 mins a day doing personal stuff on the office internet? Who's Hat? Hat, the average office worker? And what's he doing spending precious minutes doing personal stuff? What's all this crazy talk? FREE HAT! Just kidding, I can imagine. I think I spend at least four hours a day doing personal stuff on the office internet.
May 14, 200917 yr I actually think that the goal is with fewer words it's much easier to match keywords to content
May 14, 200917 yr Author Touché. I think one thing they are trying to do is to reach a certain target market, which is designers like us, who expect to see large websites. But honestly, I don't want it. Bigger isn't better. And that's coming from somebody who's well endowed.
May 14, 200917 yr Author Or it could be for us old dears who's eyes aren't what they used to be! Maybe. Control & scroll to be honest though haha.
