Things Made Worse, Not Better!

One of my pet peeves is when a system is supposed to be better, and yet it’s just more frustrating to use! For me there are two systems right now that I am not at all happy with that I use on a regular basis.

Well, one I use on a regular basis, anyway. That’s Wordpress 2.5. Dangit! I’m finally getting used to it, but there still are some things I don’t like. Especially the widgets. You can’t move them from sidebar to sidebar, you have to delete them and then recreated them. So who thought that was a good idea? Ugh. I don’t know, but that guy should seriously be reprimanded.

And then there is Social Spark. I am not liking how the navagation in it is, at all. The sort sucks, it either looses the sort or looses the filter, which is ridiculous. And how come you can’t save your sort or selection criteria? Not being able to see which blogs qualify for which opportunities. And what is the deal with having to wait for opps in a Queue? Who came up with that idea? That guy, also, should be reprimanded!

I guess I’m on a rant today. Oh well. I’m not happy with these systems even though they are supposed to be better than before. But, I guess, these are new ‘features’… here at work when we find something we don’t like in a program, we call it a ‘feature’!

On this day..

    You think you have it bad? Try “upgrading” o Windows Vista. Aargh.

    OK, back to my regularly scheduled blog reading, and hopefully this computer won’t crash while doing so. :-)

    Social Spark needs some serious work - I wasted hours with it and eventually gave up.

    I agree. I don’t know if it is because I get used to something or they actually do screw it up.
