The New DT looks like the Independent. Hope the style does not signify political bent. Still, as long as Matt is there.
Worst for endless scrolling is the Metro. You scroll endlessly, click on a link and go back and you are up the top again! I just paste links into a new tab now, much simpler.bloggoth

Absolutely agree, but bizarrely some UI "experts" (such as the one you posted a link to the other week) insist that fixed page lengths are the Devil's work, and infinite scroll is far better.Originally posted by NickFitz View PostInfinite scroll is the worst UI "innovation" since that sodding paperclip
I suppose a scrolling window wouldn't be quite so bad, provided the browser was careful not to misposition during a transition and lose one's place.
Another annoying "innovation" is news pages that feature relative dates ages in the past, such as "two months, three weeks, and two hours ago". Obviously some pipsqeak developer thought it was frightfully clever displaying dates in that form. But most people would probably far prefer a simple date. (I don't have such a problem with relative times on genuinely recent articles, such as "3 hours ago".)Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment
