Angels in an evil, melancholy sky

A sky of melancholy
The sky is of a sad, sad blue tonight
看著憂傷的天空,不禁也被感染了一點哀傷的情緒。不過為何憂傷的畫面也有種病態美呢XD

上週的美味...

ああ、マグロと酒全部うまい。

日本超市真是好東西,可惜好遠

AA website design

The American Airlines website is wonderfully designed.

To find tickets/reservations, you enter all your trip info and preferences, then you go down to the end of the page, and click on a button to go to the next page.

Well, the "Start over" button is several times bigger then the "Go" button, and the "Go" button is already tiny. Guess which button are you more likely to click?

Some how the designer decided that they should remedy this by making the "Go" button bright red, yet in common GUI designs, red buttons are associated with negative functions, such as delete, cancel, close, or stop.

So I guess they'd rather want you to start over with the filling out the form then buy a ticket :)
