OK, I'm not going to spend my day arguing for shockwave, or against it. If you want to read the site, read it. If not, don't. Either way, I agree that I would like to see the two initiatives working a little closer together. Scott

folk clueless enough to put up a shockwave-only page sure ain't gonna get a lot of big isp business. That's marketing folks for ya. Can't hold that against what the NAP can offer.
Actually, you can.
If the website doesn't conform to reasonable standards, then either the company doesn't have technically competant people, or else they aren't able to influence the public website. Either way, I'd certainly steer a wide berth around any such company.
It's within the bounds of possibility that the company really has technically competant people, who don't for whatever reason care about the public presence of their company on the net, but could fix it if they bothered. Even that fantasy scenario doesn't make me want to do business with them.
