Outlook Web Access has been built by monkeys

The guys who make outlook have no clue on how to make a web interface. A pack of wild spider monkeys would probably do a better job.
For instance the paging looks like this:

1 2 3 4 5 ... |< < > >|

There are a number of problems with that:

It doesn’t tell you how many total pages you have (in my case it was upwards of 30)
When I click on the fifth page, it ends up looking something like this:

1 2 3 4 [5] … |< < > >|

where [5] denotes that 5 has been selected

So, what if I want to go to page 6?? I have to click on that dumbass arrow

Why even bother showing the page numbers, and not just show the current page, if they’re going to be lazy about it?

Not to mention that to send the message it’s in the upper left corner - which isn’t familiar to about 90% of the population

Plus the text box to edit your email has a font that is approximately 100% smaller than I can reasonably read.

Please note that I’m using Firefox - I guess microsoft just doesn’t want to support a good browser.

Why Windows PC users are insecure morons

I read an article I stumbled upon complaining about Mac users here entitled: “Mac Users Are Whiny Losers. Love, Maximum PC”. I know it’s a troll, but I had to respond. These are just too moronic and someone out there is going to read these reasons and think them true. All of these are myths and should be treated in the same fashion as any other superstitious bullshit. (more…)
