I hate things that pop up, specifically on web pages. Not just pop-up
advertising, but when you mouse over a link and then there's a little
floating box that shows some "helpful" information, or maybe a miniaturized version of the page that is being linked to. It blocks the text I'm trying to read. I never click on anything in the floating box. I know how to open links in a new tab, thank you very much.
I'm an obsessive highlighter/clicker I click and drag and double click on random text as I read it. I don't know why. I hate this behavior in other people but I can't seem to stop myself from doing it. I'm noticing more and more blogs that actually do something when I double click on random text, like search for it. I hate those blogs. I never visit them again.
Is this the Web 2.0 that people keep telling me about, because it's really annoying and I want it to stop.
Yes, I now find that I can no longer browse the web comfortably with having only a 1.6GHz Pentium M 725 “Dothan”, with a whopping 2MB L2-cache! Who would've thought?!
The funny thing is, I was highlighting the text while I read this.
Oh god, I thank I was normal, but now I know I'm an "obsessive highlighter" too...
(When I don't highlight text, I obsessively draw eights or infinites signs with my mouse's cursor. That's maybe why I prefer console mode...)
Yes, that's Web 2.0. Web 2.0 is a nuisance conceived by gay-wad bloggers/PHP programmers that wish to think of themselves as being innovative.
So are tag clouds.
