ITWire and excessive content paging
ITWire is a pretty good news service. It often covers news with limited popular coverage. However they have been reducing the amount of content they show per page, in what I assume is an attempt to increase page/banner views, to a ridiculous point. While trying to read an article on Sun's Chief Open Source Office's interview I was faced with a page with only 270 words, with the interview split into 6 pages. Clicking 6 times to read a short interview is not what I would consider a good use of time. Hopefully they see the problem they are causing for their users and advertisers and put a stop to this madness and really rescue the usability of an otherwise pretty good site.
