hmm, I followed this link. And there is a floating ad that covers most
of the text. And apparently cannot be dismissed. I also get the badly
buffered music still

that video ad is actuall on several of their pages. I got it
independently trying to read a different article. I found it really
annoying -- i had multiple windows open and my sound turned up with
the door to my office open. Even if it were not annoying to my
officemates, the sound is still too lou
it doesn't even buffer properly over here. Very annoying. Like
listening to static on the radio. Also the control that seems like it
might make it all stop is actually a hotspot. Argh.

I've said the same thing in the past, and filled out their contact form with it
as such. Everyone knows the blaring audio and then a popup is poor
net-tiquette. Must be a slow news day to post that as an editorial lol.

That's hilarious.
At least they're on CF-Community *chuckle* ^_^
I just find the site difficult to navigate and just far too cluttered.
Maybe there is good content there...somewhere...but it just feels like
I would need to jump through too many hoops to access it!
haha that's hilarious.
Yeah, I mean come on trying to read an article shouldn't cause you brain to
go into convulsions trying to chase the "close window" on th popup that
floating across the screen. I also don't want to wake up half my household
because of a video ad that starts playing.

It seems that someone at the .Net news desk of Sys-Con does not like that
someone(s) on this list doesn't like their site.

I wonder if they actually read the thread or even understood what it said. It's
not advertising thats annoying, it's intrusiv
That site would be one of my examples of how NOT to use Flash Video. :)

Don't forget the flash pop up ad you need to close before viewing the
article at times as well... I'm all for paid advertisements but this site is
getting retarded!

I'm looking through blog posts and see a nice looking one on CF 8 tips. I go
to it without looking at the url. What do I get? BLASTED with music over my
headphones. Do they have any clue how annoying that is?
