David Singer and Sara Moulton Reger: A Web page that requires a reader to scroll to the top to click the “next page” link instead of duplicating the link at the bottom of the page
A bit of an irony, coming from a presentation which is largely devoid of links.
Update: these pages now have Previous and Next links!
The URL I’ve been using is RSS 2. Visiting the feed with the Sage plugin for Firefox, I get some articles with titles only, and some with “introductory” text. Here’s a sample (current):

Michal Wallace: I mentioned to Sam Ruby that I’d like to have a window pop up on my home machine if the load started to creep up on one of my servers. Not five minutes later he sends me a python/Tkinter script that does just that! ... Tue, May 3, 2005 18:52

I didn’t insert the “...” in the Wallace article’s text--that’s how it appears in the feed’s “description” element, which is what Sage shows me. :( The full post is in the “body” element, which Sage doesn’t show (and which I don’t see in the spec?) The two with titles only don’t even have description elements, which IIRC are supposed to be mandatory.
Meh. I’m happy to read whatever you write even if it takes an extra click each time. :)
