Innovation from Radio-Canada … or NOT (0)

February 26th, 2007 · by Heri · Technology

Radio-Canada has setup an online website for the TV series Rumeurs

They must have discovered and subscribed to the Internets last week.

I am not qualified to talk about the content, but what I have to say is that the website is:

  • a e-magazine, which means it is not updated regularly but published monthly
  • in flash. Therefore, there is no way to bookmark or email to a friend a specific page. I don’t even want to think about search engines
  • there is no feedback or conversation possible
  • features an user interface that breaks all rules of usability and accessibility

The user interface is so bad that they had to write side instructions on how to access pages. Everything feels so wrong. What where they afraid about? “pirates” copying their content? or the team didn’t get the budget to publish this on print?
