I got this URL today in MyTGIF.com newsletter www.my-tgif.com/catcommand.htm Purrs and Hugs, Nan >I got this URL today in MyTGIF.com newsletter > www.my-tgif.com/catcommand.htm One of the best ways to make me hate a web page, is to put music on it, which is impossible to turn off! Just pass that on to MyTGIF! Horrible!! When I heard the music, I just closed down the browser window as fast as I could! Hans ...> When I heard the music, I just closed down the browser window as fast as I > could! > > Hans I also find music people put on their Web pages to be very annoying. If I can't turn off the music, I'll get out right away.

It's a waste of energy for me to get annoyed about trivial things like one minute of music that might not be to my taste. Tweed > >>>I got this URL today in MyTGIF.com newsletter > >>> www.my-tgif.com/catcommand.htm I enjoyed that. Perhaps moreso because I am too lazy to turn my speakers on. --Fil >>I got this URL today in MyTGIF.com newsletter >> www.my-tgif.com/catcommand.htm [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Hans That's what the VOLUME control on your TASKBAR is there for. Duh. Personally, I rather like honky tonk piano stuff. ;^) >> One of the best ways to make me hate a web page, is to put music on it, >> which is impossible to turn off! Just pass that on to MyTGIF! Horrible!! [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > >Personally, I rather like honky tonk piano stuff. ;^) The point is that not everyone appreciates a page with sounds which automatically comes on when loaded. IMHO, all pages with sound should default to no sound, with an option to turn on the sounds if wanted.

What I find most annoying is a page with streaming sound, but on a low-capacity server, so that the sound arrives with random pauses. SignatureJohn F.

I'm on cable internet so ... there was no lag whatsoever. >>> One of the best ways to make me hate a web page, is to put music on it, >>> which is impossible to turn off! Just pass that on to MyTGIF!

Have you noticed that some of the advertisements for college and university registration have sound tracks ... because the students can't read very well? YIKES |
