The Superest
The Superest has a great yet simple design/style. Note the balance between the thick heavy lines, the heavy arrows, and the super thin grey lines that hold the page design together.
Design Museum in London
The website for Design Museum in London has nice variety from page to page.
Treehugger
The sidebar at Treehugger screens (example) features a “Click to Jump” option that breaks up the page into separate, clickable “screens.”
Amazon beads

I’ve got the best inappropriate Amazon “related item” ever.
My wife does a lot of craft projects in her spare time, so she was searching for “beads”.
In the related items, Amazon offered her a delightful set of Anal Beads.
Not new Anal Beads, either. Used Anal Beads.
Proof that you can indeed take bargain shopping (way) too far.

on 10 Apr 08At least one bargain vendor that competes with Amazon is unable to correctly mark all of their ‘adult’ products. One component of this problem is that the ‘Anime’ category contains everything from Pokemon and YuGiOh to Overfiend and T&A Teacher. This makes it incredibly difficult to filter recommendations, as the last resort of textual analysis is definitely not 100% effective.
One other possible source of the Amazon issue is that their recommendation system executes random experiments on different segments of the user population. Maybe Mrs. Atwood found a failure :)

I can’t say for sure if anal beads work without Javascript.

I’ll never understand why people disable JavaScript, popups are pretty much dead. Flash and Java applets I could understand…

on 11 Apr 08People disable javascript because it can be a security risk

on 13 Apr 08Block pop-ups has nothing to do with disabling javascript, this can be done using popup-blocker. Disable JavaScript for security is an idea so wrong like disable cookies for privacy.
