An Overdesigned Website

If you'd like to see a really overdesigned website that is impossible to use in any practical way, check out this website: http://www.pageonebookshop.com.

It takes a long time to load, uses way to much Flash, and when you click on the contact info, you have to leave your cursor on the page in order to handwrite any contact info. No cut and paste capability. Very strange.
