It's really confusing to use even if you just want to look for some basic information, it also comes with the, apparently now obligatory, overwritten scroll behaviour that is a pain to use.
This site would be perfect as a plain text website with pertinent information easily available.
It is easy to design simple, textual content that is still aesthetically pleasing; print has been doing it for more than a century.
I dislike this new web design framework junk (especially vertical overlay scrolling) as much as I disliked the Flash abuse of the late 90's early 2000's in the design community (Praystation, True is True, K10K, etc.).
I really want to channel a little Adolf Loos here and say "all ornamentation is bad and useless."
That said, their service is really cool. Prices are pretty good, and I love that I'm not beholden to a web UI for it.
I might just use them for backups for our district.
