Do you get paid to search the web for people saying mean things about Snap, and respond to it with your corporate papsmear?<br /><br />Any company that has even ONE person doing full-time "damage control", is crap. And Snap is smearing their feces all over the web. I add one blocked Javascript, only to find ANOTHER one I have to block, and so on ad infinitum? Screw you guys. I'm going back to a text browser.damaged justicenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883662263327570209.post-44850133757516753382008-01-26T15:36:00.000-08:002008-01-26T15:36:00.000-08:00This was my reply to your kind comment:<BR/><BR/>Erik:<BR/><BR/>I appreciate your post. But I think sentiment here and back channel makes it clear that, for now at least, the feature is more detraction than addition for my readers.<BR/><BR/>Certainly, I know you all have gone out of your way to make it possible for individual users to opt out, but that raises the question whether I should, in effect, force them to do that.<BR/><BR/>So far, I have not had a "keep Snap" comment yet. Now, we can debate the silent majority, but if it truly is a feature people want, at least some, buy sheer statistical dint, would be expected to speak up.<BR/><BR/>I find the feature useful on other sites -- the thumbnails are big enough for me to see where I am going, which I like. But while I would speak up for it purely personally on other sites, the relationship changes here, and the readers get their say. I listen.<BR/><BR/>The code hasn't totally gone away; I have just commented it out in the template. Perhaps a time will come when people will ask for it.<BR/><BR/>DougDoug Fisherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16156896794811327893noreply@blogger.com
