The Daily Sucker

Submitter’s comments: Awful Flash navigation that just wastes space and is not intuitive. The “main menu” at the top doesn’t work until you click on it. Subpages only show sub-page navigation unless you figure out that you can change it to the main menu by clicking the main menu link at the top, to get back to the sub-navigation you have to click the button that says “MAIN “, that’s intuitive.

You can get a snow report by clicking the star next to where it says “Main Menu” (that’s Mystery Meat Navigation). They have also named the site map “Explore.” Wouldn’t have ever figured out what that was because I never would have clicked it on my own.

Vincent Flanders’ comments: The word “Awful” in “Awful Flash navigation” is an unnecessary modifier. There is no such thing as good Flash navigation because:

1. Some businesses won’t let employees install plugins
2. Many users of the Firefox browser use an add-in called “Flashblock” which, surprise!, blocks Flash.
3. Sometimes Flash fouls up.

Flash is OK, as an accent just don’t make it your navigation.

It looks like the site has changed “Explore” to “Explore Site Map.” The word “Explore” is also an unnecessary modifier. What do they think I’m going to do with a site map? Eat it? Just put “Site Map.”
