For instance on my screen resolution (1280x1024) there were three separate Google Ad spaces on the left, center, and right before I even began to scroll and there are 6 total "bloc

I agree with Neha & Sarah; what is my motivation for using this service and how does it fit within the context (mental model) of what I already do? The content on the homepage could also be better focused. Welcome to the Interaction

Hi All, I was wondering if you'd take a second to provide some honest feedback on a website I worked on briefly. The site is http://ranker.com and it's for creating lists for anything from shopping lists to top-10 lists. It's been months since I was last employed there, but I really wanted to ge
