Nice try, but…
For some reason absolutely unknown to science I am, living in Geneva Switzerland, a huge NFL fan. Don’t ask why the story’s too long ;-)
Anyway I spend a lot of time on sports web sites like ESPN or CNNSi. These guys are usually doing a fine job, regularly introducing hot new features (this year: in your face video everywhere), but I hate ESPN’s latest try: the obscuring tooltip. Check this out:
When you mouse over you get more about what you are about to read. Nice, except it prevents you from reading the titles of the other links so you end up moving out of the list to see what in it. Nice idea, just not doable this way.
Oh btw: game streaming has arrived.
