MSDN2

Has anyone noticed how MSDN2 has that nice fade effect when you leave one of their pages? Thats a pretty spiffy effect, except for when I want to get shit done.

MSDN2 is basically a dictionary/encyclopedia site; I go there to look up specific things dealing with Microsoft frameworks and apis.  I don’t need to be wowed with the cool dhtml eye candy, especially if it slows down the page loading (which it does).  This page about the DataTable class is 616 kb, which is about the size as the shareware games I used to download in junior high.

I typically browse through MSDN as I find what I want and it sucks to have to wait even a few seconds to get to the next page.

All that said, I do like some of the features of MSDN2, namely the fact that the tree view works in firefox and the language filter, those rock! :)
