My peeve du jour: Looking for a specific one sentence piece of online info and being forced to view the video or the slide show instead. I don't want to watch bad home movies while someone blathers on like an eight year old on coke for fifteen minutes, unless the how-to info truly can't be described without it. Similarly, a site that is so slow it basically won't load at all because it's so bogged down with ads, links and "join now" inserts. Links that appear to be useful (you know, they're underlined in blue) and turn out to be a simple definition having nothing to do with the topic at hand. [topic at hand: what is being discussed.] Finally, the fact that I have to sign up to do just about anything. Simply must have my email address, and make me go there and verify that I have indeed unwillingly signed up, and then go back and find the page all over again, simply in order to do a one-off view of a website, take a quiz, leave a comment. I know, too much time on my hands, but it's like junk mail: is anything other than a gigantic increase in wasted time and irritation actually accomplished?
