I picked this Flash website Burton.com because it is the most frequently visited website by myself. As you enter the website you have a language menu from around the world. Once you have entered the things I really like about this website is it overwhelms you with activities. You can go to the the bottom and view some really hot snow boarding videos all featured by Burton of course. One of the cool features is you can search for gear by colors in one of the little pop-ups, or you can even enter to win free gear. It also gives you a quick overview of Burton upcoming news and events. One of the coolest things on the site is that on of the ads gives you the option to customize your board with your artwork or photos. If you come to this site looking to buy some gear, you can add it to your gear locker which is in the top right of your screen. They will store something in your locker for a week or so until removing it, so it gives you the chance to leave the website and come back later and start right where you left off. Once you click on gear you come to a menu for men's gear, women's gear etc. I really enjoyed the rollover menu's that pop up when you scroll through the screen. Something on this website that is very helpful is when you click on Tech, you can get a lot of information on useful information from ridding to setting up your boards bindings. Now if you goto teams you have a chance to kind of meat the team members and scroll through numerous photos of the team members and there daily lives. It does a great job of introducing the team members and gives some awesome information on them. The one thing i could critique on this website is that the first page, even though I know it suppose to be a little bland, it is simple just an enter page with languages on it but it really doesn't give the feel of Burton at all. If i had designed this website that would probably be one of the things I did differently. Other than that I love the site and visit it at least three times a week to check in on new things going on.
