Is it just me or are all those annotated links super confusing? I tried clicking on their jobs page link, but it just gave me this slow loading pop up thing with zero helpful or related info. Cool idea on the $1k though.


If part of interview involves figuring out how to follow that link, I failed. I thought the you might be exaggerating, but I spent 2 minutes clicking it in every conceivable way. It's pretty clunky.

Got it. There's another link in the popup (if it comes up.) Hey RG, why doesn't the popup/content load reliably? One of those hard computing problems?

I actually like the lyrics site, but this is a funny kind of ego stroking.


Not just you. I wanted to see the jobs page and failed.

Doesn't take brilliant to fix that...


I could be wrong but after spending 2 minutes finding out about them, I think that sort of thing is their actual business, not just a small flaw in a blog post?


I guess their reasoning is that since they create one UI "idea" on their main product, it should therefore be used absolutely everywhere. Clearly people want to open popups and click one thing on the popup again when they actually just want to click the link.


I guess so. I revisited it and realized that bubble had a link in it. That's ridiculous, of course. I thought it was user content and ignored it entirely.
