| Rotten Tomatoes I don’t know about you guys, but since I signed up for Netflix, I’m spending way more time reading movie reviews. And thus, way more time at Rotten Tomatoes, which has generated quite a bit of well-deserved buzz. “A premier destination for both casual movie-goers and film buffs alike,” this site is a pretty thorough and reliable source for movie and video information. The combination of navigational ease and pure fun make it a place I’ve gotten lost in more than once. (Sighted by Erin Gannon) | Rufus Wainwright This site has got a Flash version (you choose on the rufuswainwright.com homepage) but the non-flash version is what impressed me. I truly think the Flash version is unnecessary. The HTML version is clean, easily navigable, lightning fast and just flat-out attractive. Say what you will about his music, I find him somewhat entertaining, but his site was designed by someone with cross-browser functionality and slower connections in mind. They accomplished this without compromising design and the coolness factor that is obligatory for the hipster music scene. (Sighted by Robyn Pearson) | Johnny Cash The passing last week of Johnny Cash left a sizable hole in the music industry but this tasteful Web site makes a fitting tribute to this legend. The site is simple, not at all flashy--but with some nice touches like a scrolling slideshow in the photo section. This is a great site for those who wish to remember the man, the myth, the legend who was Johnnny Cash--and those who would like to learn more. | Good Experience It's about Web and other interfaces that just don't work, such as messages that don't make sense or some technical hodge podge that creates a bad user experience. Web users submit them as they find them--complete with screen shots and stories. They are actually having a contest this month giving those who submit something a chance to win a digital camera. It ranges from airport signs to Microsoft errors. It's an interesting read. (Sighted by Rachel Plut) | Hyperdictionary I have seen a lot of online dictionaries. This one has become my favorite. It's six dictionaries and a thesaurus all in one! Type in any word and you'll receive its definition, where applicable, in two different English dictionaries (a contemporary one and an older one), a Biblical dictionary, a high-tech dictionary, a medical dictionary, and a dream interpretation dictionary. Oh ya, plus a fully hyperlinked synonym list and pronunciation guide. You won't be able to stop looking things up. (Sighted by Lori Piquet) |
