Website Research:
The creator of the
website has always believed in a strong connection between sound and vision. He
believes ‘music videos are like little slices of synchronous art, designed to
please all of your senses. The entire piece is made up of HTML5 and CSS3
technology so that all that is needed is a web browser.
The website has a large
turntable which people can click and drag the music listed underneath, onto the
turntables to mix up the music they’ve chosen. I think the user interactivity
is simple and works well. As the website tells people what to do, it makes the
website more user friendly.
This is a website which
has been labelled as ‘the best ugliest website ever’ which uses a mix of moving
animation, annoying background music, the use of comic sans to write poorly
written paragraphs about the site and goalies, a colourful background with
non-complimentary coloured fonts and large distracting words and boxes.
The website is not very
user friendly and seems to be pretty pointless. Apart from a guestbook there is
not much more for a user to do with the webpage.
A boy that needed money
to help him pay for university created the million-dollar homepage. The idea
behind the website was to make $1m by selling a million pixels for $1 each.
“So, everyone is welcome to buy my pixels, which are
available in 100-pixel 'blocks' (each measuring 10x10 pixels). You will see the
homepage is divided into 10,000 of these 100-pixel blocks (hence there are
1,000,000 pixels in total). The reason for selling them in 100-pixel blocks is
because anything smaller would be too small to display anything meaningful.
You can buy as
many pixels as you like, as long as there are some available (see the live
stats in the top right corner of the page). When you buy some pixels, you can
then display an image/ad/logo of your choice in the space you have purchased.
You can also have the image click through to your own website. However, no
obscene or offensive images are allowed.
The pixels you buy will be displayed on
the homepage permanently. The homepage will not change. Using some of the money
I make from the site, I guarantee to keep it online for at least 5 years, but
hopefully much longer. I want it to become a kind of internet time capsule. So,
in the long run, I believe the pixels will offer good value. You will have a
piece of internet history!”
