whine whine whine

OK - one of my hugest pet peeves is websites or blogs that automatically play music, often REALLY REALLY LOUD, so that it a) scares the bejeebus out of you OR b) drowns out whatever you are listening to already. I don't mind the "play this if you want to hear what I like to listen to" option - I often do check out the songs - but I like being given the choice. There are blogs and websites I won't visit as often or at all anymore because the automatic music pisses me off so much.

no, yours is perfect, Carol. lol - I was listening to your playlist earlier in a background window, actually, when I was rudely interrupted by someone else's blog music, set to STUN. I literally jumped when the music started. I had been 'missing' her blog, and when I went back today I remembered why I was avoiding it. lol

I didn't think your blog had music, Cathy? Your Moms does, I know. This other woman I went to visit her blog over lunch hour, and when I got there, BLAM CHICKA BLAM BLAM nasty hardcore rap-rock stuff... and instantly thought of your Mom, whose blog when I visit I have myself trained to turn the speakers DOWN before I go there lol. I like the song she has first on her playlist - it rocks that your Mom is into the Plain White Tees. lol
Just for the record , my new website has music.

But it can be turned off at the bottom corner.

Sorry buttercup!

I love the right music on photography websites because they add to the mood and make me cry LOL!!!

Well, your website won't change much, so i don't care. I jsut won't go to it.

The only mood uninvited music on a website puts me in is 'bitchy' lol

Yes blogs are cool !! Websites are mostly for the newcomers checking for information .

Love yous !

I'm holding Tammy's mouse ransom until she makes the option to turn ON the musinc rather than turn OFF the music... MUAH HAHAHA

I love Carols' playlist - I always turn hers on lol.
