It's not glee, it's disappointment/disgust. boo.com is getting a huge

amount of publicity. It's going to be many people's first experience of an

e-commerce site, and (for them) be representative of e-commerce as a

whole. That's, IMHO, the worst thing about it - it doesn't affect me in

the slightest if their site is inaccessible and unusable by a large number

of people.

I can't believe no-one from Organic is on this list, but the PR company

seem to be the only people able to comment (so far).
