SuperBloat-- I'm so very full of chili from our groovy SuperBowl Party. It was definitely the Grand Opening of our basement. Hard as we worked to make it all nice down there, everyone still congregated in our kitchen. There is an amazing gravitational pull in the kitchen of of our house. Next time we are going to install a tractor beam in the basement to offset the kitchen. Hindsight is 20/20.

MonsterVision-- So Monster decided to change its look and feel for the Super Bowl. Whoopee! I agree with all of Walt's points about the reduced productivity, and the striking resemblance to Apple Switch. I'd like to add to that.

Monster has become a frightening hodge-podge of different "projects" cobbled together to resemble a web property. It is scary how different each area of the site now looks and interacts. From the recruiter backend, to the Career Center, to My Monster, every thing looks different. The use of graphic Monster buttons and catchy little callouts all over the page makes the site look like the outfield at your local minor league ballpark (and they've started cleaning up the aesthetics of those ballparks). I really think that Monster is due for a total architecture and look and feel upgrade. Unfortunately I know how difficult that would be.
