I recently posted an article (a heavily opinionated one) about how Greece falls 10 years behind in terms of Internet usage, comprehension and real-life application.

I always wanted to turn to a subject which I think is terribly important and totally related to the issue above: the quality of company sites. And when I say “company sites”, I mean anything from a bank to a phone provider site. Sites that wouldn’t consist a slice of your everyday browsing, but would be indispensable in terms of important information (say, parcel tracking, or paperwork details).

For the next couple of days I’ll follow some simple usability test cases on some of these sites and see how it goes, then blog the results. I’m not going to offer solutions, mind you: I’m not going to spend any more time on this, because hey, I’m not getting paid to do so. Others do.

So it’s simple, dry ranting for some future posts. If you think you can’t handle it, please feel free to ignore any posts labeled “Why Greek sites suck” from now on.

Why am I doing it?
Because I always had the secret dream of making all greek Web usable and pretty. Now I see why there’s no point.

Are you offended by the term “suck”?
Fine by me. I’m not going to change it.

Do all Greek sites suck?
No.

Let the games begin…

greece, greek web, greek sites, greek internet
