#2Amazing design.
Re: They Make Apps
#3Oh my god what a horrible design, and total lack of usability.
Re: They Make Apps
#4It doesn't scroll, you're not doing it wrong. It's kind of an interesting design idea, but my first instinct is that it's frustrating more than useful. Let me at least scroll using my mouse or my keys in a way similar with other web sites.

#5Innovative design. Terrible usability.
It breaks all the functionality you expect on a web page. It isn't clear where the hyperlinks are, mouse scroll doesn't work and I have to learn how to use this specific web page (!)
To get an idea of just what a mess it is, try browsing it with stylesheets disabled. The designers seem to have gone out of their way to create a poor flash-like interface without actually using flash.

#6Oh my god what a horrible design, and total lack of usability.
Sheesh folks. Rather than the jumping on the 'its-abnormal', maybe we could find some innovative uses for this kind of UI?
My first instinct: "oooh, this feels just like Picasa, very smooth scrolling, I could spend an hour flipping through photos like this."

#7I didn't mind the design, and loved the keyboard navigation.
Re: They Make Apps
#8Somewhat ironic that I cannot use the site in Mobile Safari.

#9Awesome! To able scroll with the mouse wheel you need go through the whole menu, figure out that the "switch" is about scrolling, swear quite a lot and switch it. Revelation(!) Reinventing usability FTW! (and yes still sarcastic...)

Yes, but this site isn't for browsing photos.
