Embedded Music

{ MOOD: Flavorful | ITUNES: “Tell Her Tonight” – Franz Ferdinand }

So we all have pet peaves. Here’s one of mine: music embedded in blogs.

I use bloglines to read my blogs. Very cool. But every once in awhile, I want to post a comment, so as I am reading blogs, I am popping up pages behind the one I am reading to comment on when I am done.

Every once in awhile, I will pop up a page that has embedded music. I usually don’t catch it for a few seconds. The song will start playing and making a mockery of what I am listening to in iTunes. Then, I have to go through each page and find the culprit. Arg.

Can you tell this just happened?

If you would like to comment on this post, please do so over on Facebook. You can find my blog posts imported into the "Notes" section. Sorry if this inconveniences you or if you don't use Facebook, it just helps me have a single place for dialog.

    I hate embedded music as much, or more than:

    1) the blink tag
    2) animated .gifs
    3) the marquee tag
    4) links that open .pdf files without warning you
    5) pages that open FULL SCREEN and take over your desktop.
