- lucideer 10y agoGoogle, according to the info popup bottom right
- ForHackernews 10y agoDo you think it's an attempt to gather location data from users? Or just a fun gag?
- bowmessage 10y agoProbably Google, I get redirected to download Chrome when I visit without WebGL :)
- settsu 10y agohttps://activetheory.net/work/paper-planes-io https://activetheory.net/work/paper-planes-io for Google I/O 2016. It featured prominently at the beginning of the video stream.
- Strilanc 10y agoThat is some impressively terrible UX for a website.
- sotojuan 10y agoDisagree. It's not a website, but a portfolio. Agencies and designers have to show off what they can do and a static site with screenshots won't cut it. I'm personally very impressed.
- andrewguenther 10y agoAll the more reason to have a good user experience. How likely am I to work with an agency that can't even show me their work in a functional way? Scroll is broken, navigations are broken, weird looping behavior. It feels like an old Dreamweaver site.
- lucideer 10y agoAgree that it's a generally different use case, but I'm trying to click through to examples of work and I went through three or four times to what seemed a blank page, returned to the homepage, and started over, before figuring out how to access them. There are still slight UX requirements even for showy contexts like this.
