Die, Flash, Die

I belittle sites that look stupid or become useless when viewed with a Flash blocker. Screenshots are taken with ClickToFlash enabled. Feel free to submit a screenshot or a site for me to publish here.

SingTel Wireless@SG

Wireless@SG is, frankly, pretty awesome - it’s a government-driven initiative to provide free wireless access points in most large public buildings in Singapore. Considering the high density of buildings, this means one is never too far from a hotspot. So yeah, great service.

SingTel, a local phone and internet company, is one of the providers of this service.

As we’ve seen before on this site (1, 2), SingTel is madly and irrationally in love with the inappropriate use of Flash. In this case, they sent me (and presumably other iPhone subscribers) an SMS asking me to download the SingTel Wireless@SG Connect app - sure, no problem there. This SMS also provided a link to go to the above website, which has its contents almost entirely buried in Flash, for more information.

Brilliant as ever, SingTel. Keep it up, and this site will never run out of material.
