Lol..

The extent of my Jonas Bros knowledge is an episode of 'Minute to Win It.'

This is the sort of thing we've heard since 1995 from entertainment and ad industry folks who haven't spent any time working on the Internet. Once they do spend time working on the Internet, fortunately, they realize that there's a good reason Web pages look the way they do. And they observe that Craigslist and Wikipedia, which basically have no design, are two of the most successful sites in the world. And they note that Google doesn't have much design, either, and it's worth more than the entire entertainment industry put together. And they gradually realize that they didn't know as much about the Internet as they thought they did.


That was amusing.
