I believe it is a successful design non the less. Web 2.0 is supposed to help us browse through data easier and faster. This site is about advertising a cafe and not sharing a database of information so .. thumbs up!

It's not that practical, but as a piece of design and as a concept I like it.

I have a great book Web Design Index 6 which is just full of web designs from the conventional to the more wacky thats worth a look too.

For every 60 crap sites with AJAX and violators all over the place, there are another 40 that are accessible, coloured tastefully, with clear layout and decent sized text – all of which are part of the Web 2.0 ‘revolution’ too!

Thanks for hosting my daily rant… ;)
