Discourse.net: Snap and It's Gone

Snap and It's Gone

In a comment on the previous post, “Asperger Syndrom DVD Available for Educators”, Brett Bellmore complains about the snap.com preview tool I installed on the blog. I think he has a point.

Back when I installed this thing, it had a one-click on/off toggle that you could invoke from the left margin of the blog. So if you didn’t like it, you clicked once, set the cookie, and it never bothered you again.

But that option seems to be gone: at least today, the toggle isn’t working right, so if you want to make snap stop snapping, you have to go to their page. That’s not nice.

I’ve disabled the snap, and will only bring it back if there’s popular demand in the comments below.

Popular demand for yet another irritating gadget? Count me out.

Snap would have to be one of the top 5 tools to annoy and drive visitors away from your site.

Good move Michael, i think the "popular demand" box will remain empty.

Carly,

"One of the top five"?

Dare I ask what the other four would be?
