I must say I am surprised at how many of us like/dislike the same items,
and I don't think it is because we are all programmers.  Books basically
look all the same because there is good design, and bad design.  Web
pages are too new and the technology changing too quickly for a standard
design to become popular, but I think eventually many of those _bad_ web
pages will be replace with good ones.

In fact, most large companies have terrible web sites, especially the
home page for the site.
