Clueless Users

(via Casey)

Verisign have produced “proof” that their SiteFinder service “improved the Internet”. Their evidence seems to rest on a few clueless users who thought that SiteFinder stopped them getting 404 errors.

I’m not convinced that in cases like this we should take the word of someone who obviously doesn’t know what a 404 error is over the opinions of the tech-savvy internet community who almost without exception hated siteFinder.
