Index? or catalog?

Politico has a lovely Flash thingie on this page … as good as any I've seen, and far better than most. [Foolish that there's no image available for the site ... shows how ragged the web is, still, today.]

But it seems that folk are becoming conditioned to just grazing from whatever they find in front of them. Selecting from the thingies' menu system doesn't actually bring a user closer to a desired item but, rather, merely presents a different set of selections from the catalog.

  1. There are lots of ways to skin a cat …
    … if skinning a cat is what you want to do.

    Finding the information we feel we need, that's a pretty reasonable goal, yaa? But … how come folk don't object when the deck is stacked?
    Seems to me we're feeding on a diet of pre-digested food. And I can't think that's good for the body politic.

    Information … it's the stuff we think.
