No, of course not. Thinking like that doesn’t give you the jumping off point for this post.

Are you sure that isn’t a headline that got chopped off?

Looks like it should say “Gmail to drop IE6 support this year”

In that case wouldn’t the program that’s displaying the headline be the cause of the problem in limiting the number of characters to a random arbitrary number? (34?)

Comment on Why Would The User Use A Native Browser Feature? by The Director

You got the other defect I mentioned.

But, the developers would say, no user would ever see that message since no user would ever use CTRL+P instead of the use path they envisioned and wrote the code to accommodate.

I couldn’t agree more. Ctrl-P should be honored along with other commands we have all been using for years.

Another defect is that the error message says to click on Print in the upper right corner and this ‘Print’ they speak of doesn’t exist in either the printed map nor the original page. There is a print in the lower left.

I’m sure there are more defects to be found ;o)

That phone thing reminds me of my other pet hate – postcode fields that only accept US-length postcodes of 5 digits, even though it’s an internationally marketed website.
