Audible.com *Fnally* Re-Launches

Our schedule was insanely fast. My work was done in about 4 weeks. That was around Hallowe'en. They *finally* re-launched the new look. While I think the navigation is pretty good (and much improved), as is the design, the back-end processing and code is *awful*. The site is faster than it was, but not by much. Their dev team also decided to kill my semantic XHTML/CSS layout, and added tables –seemingly randomly– in the presentation layer. And to top it all off, they say their in "beta". ::sigh::

…sorry had to blow off some steam. Overall, I really like what I've done. Check out my quick write-up here:

I've become insomniac. Joy.
