Honestly...
I believe that in the pursuit of technological advancement, and aesthetic appeal, we forget the essentials. Ease of use! Honestly, this site, like facebook used to be simple, plain, and easy to use. Now it's complicated, slow, and annoying. Facebook has also done the same... and it's annoying. And now the mod system is more like digg... and so I fail to see what the point of them are, RT might just as well implement the digg system here. And it's not just websites... notebooks are trying to use heat sensitive buttons which are finnicky, cars try to use voice recognition navigation... etc, all of which sound/look cool but fail miserably. Anyways, that's just my take on the latest trends... partly venting because I've got finals coming up in 2 weeks which I'm not at all ready for, lol. And I'm ready to come back to the US. And all of my breaks are always timed so that I get back right after everyone goes back to school.

ANYWAYS, since I'll be buried in books I wish you all a very Merry Christmas in advance, and a Happy new year!
