The Daily Sucker

Daily Sucker for Wednesday, November 5, 2008

November 5th, 2008 4:04 am by Vincent Flanders

Submitter comments: Came across this site looking for information about VLT (video lottery terminals). The website’s address is constantly flashing up at the top of the subpages (like Video Lottery) There’s a space motif for which there’s no logical reason, we have centered and flush-left text, and the site hasn’t been updated since June 2006.

Vincent Flanders’ comments: The site may have been updated in 2006, but I suspect the updates were minor. The home page has a message that the site is optimized for Netscape 4 and Internet Explorer 4 and the heyday of those programs was a long, long time ago — IE 4 was released in September 1997. Guess what? This site looks like it was designed in 1997.
