Why Fast Company Won’t Exist Long Before 2016
Posted on July 3rd, 2008by Michael Gray in Media
So Fast Company posted an article entitled Six Jobs That Won’t Exist in 2016. Hey Fast Company Staff get your heads out of your collective asses and stop with the paginated articles … especially when you don’t need them … if you don’t people will stop reading you and you won’t be around to see if your predictions came true in 2016 or not.

But but but they can get 8 page views per article, which means 8 times the ads are displayed which means profit?

I take more issue with their job descriptions than their faux page view generation scheme. First item on the list is “Gatekeeper”? Seriously WTF is that? They then proceed to roll up several job descriptions into one.

I wouldn’t mind the pagination so much if the slideshow didn’t just start automatically. I hit pause, backpaged and it started again, so I shut the window, didn’t read a word - didn’t get a chance.
It seems usability experts will still be employed in 2016 even if FastCompany never gets around to hiring one.

Wow, the pagination reminds me of Forbes website. I completely agree with Mindy: usability experts can always find a job at FastCompany! Haha.

Must be the doing of Captain Ahab Scoble and his Twitter Fail Whale.
Ahoy Ahab, there she Blows!
Nice to see Mr, Gray’s objectivity as always!
Michael, keep up the advocacy.
