April 16, 201214 yr Hi what is this trend of having websites that have no clear explanation of what the site is about? I forget who wrote it, but wasn't it one of the golden rules "Don't make me think"?

April 17, 201214 yr I agree, wtf is the 'Google' website about? Is this supposed to be ironic? Because google doesn't make you think. It's an example of an argument for, not against.
April 17, 201214 yr It depends on who the site is aimed for. There's no point in a site explaining itself to people who aren't intended to use it.

The fact that you don't understand it is sometimes in itself all you need to know to know that it isn't aimed at you. I don't think every site out there needs to explain itself, sometimes the intended audience perfectly understands a website without needing that.
