  It might not be conventional but if you stuck this form in front of someone that had never used a web based form before I think they'd find it quite usable. I like the whimsicality of this form, but... Do you think there's a chance that anyone, ever, will see this form before having successfully registered at more traditional forms dozens (if not hundreds) of times? 'Usable to someone who's never used another website' is not the most practical standard of usability. "Users spend most of their time on other sites," after all. Huffduff may still for reasons of personality prefer this form, but I don't think it can be said to win on usability considerations.

  Oddly, most regular "web based forms" look just like paper based forms. You don't fill your taxes out on a form that looks like: Hi, my name is _____ and I'm a _______ who made $___,_____ last year. I already paid $___,____ through my employer and I have ___ children and will be taking _____, ______, _____, _____, and _____ as deductions. I had capital gains of $__,____. Also, I would like to donate ___ dollars to farmers and ____ dollars to political campaigns, and I am aware that any donations do not affect my tax obligations at all. This was filled out on the ___ day of the ___ month in the year of our _____, 20__.
