The units conversion app shown on the page is particularly pretentious and poorly aligned with user needs. Everything about it is there to say "look at me" and "see how fashionable I am in the eyes of 2008 tech fashion." None of it is there to make the app easy or fast to interact with, nor is any of it there to make the results of the units conversion easy to read or use. The fact that the page designer chose this image to explain what good design is lays bare that the emperor truly has no clothes here.
