A tiny little lesson, from the best pop-up ever.

I dislike pop-ups.

I really, really dislike pop-ups.

Heck, I pretty much hate pop-ups. Their very existence seems engineered to annoy. When I purposefully go to a webpage, having something pop up in front of that page that deters and distracts me from that purpose annoys me intensely.

That's the rule. This is the exception. This pop-up that popped up after I signed in to GoSmallBiz (a website providing support services for small busineses) a few minutes ago gave me a hearty laugh:



God knows I don't wanna be boring, so yeah, I'm gonna check out those widgets. Meanwhile, a memo to myself: inject as much fun (delight?) as you can into everything you produce.
