You know those new type interfaces that got going as soon as AJAX and a multitude of javascript libraries came crashing down upon the web and webbased applications? Things like: the new google interface or how twitter works…

I honestly think it’s the most annoying crap I’ve ever seen. I understand the advantages, but why oh why must a new development end up in making the most unusable interfaces, delay screens, overlay screens and other such nonsense.

The word I’m looking for is OVERKILL. Everything that’s new in this field immediately ends up in total overkill until it implodes. Remember flash? Exactly, that’s what’s going to happen to this overkill in a year or two as well. Fast, effective, easy way to display information. Yeah right: until you cram every “snuff” known to man to make it completely impossible and irritating.
