    Thought I should try to become Godlike for my birthday, but I may have left it a bit late.

      Didn't someone get banned for doing some thread domination once?
      How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

          That argument would mean we'd all be using static HTML4 pages with marquee text effects.

            I remember when they changed the weather page a year or two back, which annoyed me because the previous style was fine as it was.

            I used to think that the BBC website (especially the news part) was one of the best websites on the internet, and was a pleasure to use. The way they are going, they will end up spoiling it.
            I imagine the new "sparse" look is intended to match how web sites are typically displayed minimally on mobbies.

                  I'm not too keen on it

                  It looks even worse on an iPad than it does on the desktop.

                    I was looking for the "don't like our new look, click here to return to our old look"

                    Spock: "Trained? Judging from you, I would have guessed it was trial and error."
