more things that suck

Update–links should work now–Performancing was being weird.

If you’re looking to feel vindicated, or merely amused, you might take a glance at the Usability Assessment Report [pdf] for the ALA website, which is one of many fascinating tidbits to be found at the ALA Web Planning Wiki. (You may remember that the biblioblogosphere’s own Wandering Eyre was part of the web planning retreat in December.)

My favorite bit of the report is this quotation from the section on URLs, which begins on p. 15:

“/Section=long-urls&suck=yes” (Yes, this is an exact quote.)

Yes, yes they do. And I, at least, got a chuckle out of it.
