The site's intended purpose is to attract visitors into the brain cluster and keep them entertained whle they're there. The site also provides single-click access to Amazon to purchase any of the books or CDs that contain the current quote. This site is a control panel that shows you sites at random from a database of hand-chosen sites. The sites were chosen for their authority in a given field, usefulness, uselessness, humor, or general interest. A great many of them are thought-provoking, fun, cool, nasty, sick, useful or just plain silly.
Users can rate each site and influence the ratings according to several different categories.
It is intended as a site for people who are fed up with finding trash in search engines, and you can spend quite a bit of time there if you dare visit. Yet another casualty of the dot com crash. We developed the back-end system in SQL Server, including an Intranet data loading system. Then some staff changes happened and suddenly it was to be a magazine based metaphor - we had to scramble to change the whole database around in time for the launch, which we duly did. We also made this demo of a home page for Antix and we're quite proud of the look and feel of the interface, but the guys at Antix thought it was not as good as their own design which was considerably busier and more icon based than this version.
