i like the top client nav. also, considering their audience (clients, prospective clients, etc), the twitter, blog you tube mashup deal makes sense. it's personally not for me, but it's not made for me anyways.

The concept sucks. That is all. Thank you.

wow that dude seems like he needs a good smack in the face.

the functionality is pretty cool... I hope the design is closer to the sitemap than the actual website at this point (hey it's a beta).
Kid: are you guys close to being done?
- Yeah, I LOVE the preloader that sits on screen for 5 seconds before the contact info pops in, very functional.NONEIS

it looks like the old newstoday

I'm not a fan of videos talking about stuff elsewhere on the page.
Unless it's done really well of course http://www.petersage.com/meetpet…

This is why "those developers" should stick to coding. A designer obviously didn't design this.

I dig the concept, would love to have that 'engine' to use in other markets.
how hard is something like that to build?
- dconstrukt0
very nice. i like.

the visual design and usability are shit. although i oppose the idea of having a "narcism aggregator", i unfortunately have some clients that would eat that shit right up. for that reason, i hope this site never officially goes live.

Looks very Web 1.0

Sorry, but this site is complete shit. I can't believe how weak the response to this has been here, I guess there are bunches of people hanging out who actually WANT to sell their soul to Burger King at some point...

I'm not struggling to find what's good about this at all. I'm struggling to understand quite the hostility toward it, maybe, but I kind of doubt that's really down to the site and more to who launched it and what it represents; another argument maybe.
It does one very important thing; it illustrates that companies can't control their own image any more the way they used to. This fundamentally changes what they have to do to be perceived positively, and therefore changes what agencies have to do to support that. If you can't see that, well...
- and to that end I think cries of 'it sucks, its just the buzz word cool thing' are irrelevantkelpie
- I assure you, my "hostility", is 100% based on the fact that it makes my eyes bleed.NONEIS
- and yet you ask 'there's a concept?', which to my mind means you've utterly missed the point. If it were better decorated you'd like it?kelpie
- ...decorated you'd like it?kelpie
- A bunch of youtube links, brilliant!NONEIS
- still not getting it, clearlykelpie
- Awwww, that's kinda cute.NONEIS
- what's cute? are you a bit mental?kelpie
- I think it's cute that you derived some deep pathetic understanding of this site that's beyond me, yawn.NONEIS
- P.S., anyone who calls themselves an "Art Director", yet refers to the tenets of good design as "decoration" makes me wonder...NONEIS
- me wonder if they know a damn thing. Far from mental, are you a bit blind and lacking in aesthetic?NONEIS

horrible, feels really clunky when you roll over things... normally fancy html sites feel really responsive this one must be badly programmed.
Also the twitter feed feels like desperation and will be pulled by tomorrow
