So my current pet hate for the internet at the moment is this.
You know that little red cross at the top corner of a web page? The one that shuts it down? When i click on it thats precisely what I want to happen, I want the website to go away!
I do not want a spam box to pop up and harass me with messages. I most certainly do not want a message saying wait A live agent wants to talk to you about last minute savings or some such. Then a box pops up saying agent is typing and there is a premade message there.
These sites really annoy me. If I was interested in talking to anyone on the site I wouldn't be pressing the little red button no would I?
This is a nasty gimmick in that it plays on our social conditioning, that we musnt just walk away in the middle of a conversation. I have done though, but if this is the latest thing that internet marketers seem to think works we may be seeing more of them in every corner.
Well be warned Ken Fryer does not like it and any sites employing such gimmicks will immediately be blacklisted and will not be recommended by me.
