IMO: It's just awful.
1. Forced waiting for transitions everywhere. For a page I'll probably only ever visit once. You want to ease-in to things. I get it. But you shouldn't hide them. If you want a dithering transition as you scroll, do that. Don't fade-in. There's almost never an excuse for that.
2. What's the point of the "meteor"? To look cool? Is there any point at all to the businesses scrolling in it? Because I don't know how many there are. There's no link to view them all. There's no points to click to go back a pin and re-read one that caught my eye.
I don't know. It just feels like people are obsessed with having the coolest Flash splash screens again.
- ProAm 12y agoForced wait is definitely an irritating practice in web today. Not only is is distracting and usually valueless, it's delays what is important: information transfer.
- apalmer 12y agoI am not sure why i need to scroll through 6 screens to see the price instead of just being able to click an icon on the first screen and jump to where i want to jump to. Maybe there is a way that I just couldnt figure out. Why is it folks would never today implement a 6 or 7 step wizard with a bunch of next buttons. but its considered a good idea to do so with scrolling is involved... would also like to see a big down arrow or some kind of standard indicator when a desktop page has this scroll behavoir... i was waiting a the starting screen for quite a while and then clicked on the 4 little icons before i figured out i just had to scroll down forever.
