What the hell is wrong with Joystiq?!? A lot of the times I try to check out their PSP feed (formerly PSP Fanboy) and it completely freezes Firefox. Something on their page just crashes it.
Kotaku is even worse-- whatever freezes/crashes Firefox on their site, it's there most of the time.
I'm guessing it's some stupid flash ad that's incompetently scripted to suck up all the memory it can or something.
Okay, banner ads make the Web go around-- they're not going away, and sites like Joystiq & Kotaku have done nothing but restructure so that they can have MORE advertising... I don't like it, but I've learned to live with it.
But how about having some STANDARDS with what ads you allow on your site? Like maybe ads that CRASH BLOODY BROWSERS... oh, I dunno..... maybe you could possibly NOT cram those in all over your sites? Sheesh.
I keep thinking some day the video game industry will actually get some "journalism"... but it hasn't happened yet in all the decades it's been around.....
Up yours, Joystiq & Kotaku.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with Firefox crashes on that site. I was afraid it was because my PC is getting too old.
Well, my PC is about 5 years on now, so maybe our PCs are getting old!
Stupid Joystiq.... I'm just trying to keep my ear to the ground for any new PSP news....
