I maintain a few band MySpace pages. As in my normal web design, I despise Flash. There's no need for it, especially on a site already filled with bugs and headache like MySpace.

What's wrong with simple and clean?

Hell, I turned off the comments on the pages I maintain. I bet if the NYT writer saw that, she'd rip me (and the band) a new one. :P

The only thing wrong with Coldplay's page is that the person moderating it isn't filtering out the spam comments.

To be sure, blah blah blah
Indeed, blah blah, blah, blah, blah
For his part, blah blah, blah, blah,
More and more, blah, blah, blah,
Increasingly, blah, blah, blah, blah

Coincidentally, my bar exam practice essays all read this way.

I’m a little worried that there is a carbon monoxide leak or something over at the Times building.

I still don’t understand what’s wrong with simplicity. Coldplay’s MySpace is very well-put together, and there’s not a web design course on earth that would hold Nas’ above it. Actually, there probably are, but that shouldn’t detract from my righteousness.

Still not as bad as that Cocorosie piece from last week.

Did anyone remember to thank NYT for that chunky piece of non-news? I realize that it’s the magazine, but still…
