Like others, I prefer the content-centric look of East Asian sites. Many highly trafficked Japanese (and Korean) web sites are model for brevity and efficiency. Compare: http://www.sankei.com/ http://www.sankei.com/ vs http://www.yahoo.com/ http://www.yahoo.com/ vs http://www.naver.com/ http://www.naver.com/ Sankei site has so much more content, yet its HTML file is only 38kb. Naver site is 97kb. Yahoo's html file is 614kb. Do View-Source on these sites, and it doesn't take long to figure out what a joke Yahoo site is. And the real joke is Japanese and Korean web developers make 1/2 or 1/3rd of what Yahoo guys make.
