So today I spent some time looking for a new restaurant to take my wife to. I solicited suggestions from my friends via my gChat status. I received many wonderful suggestions. Thank you.
The trouble that I encountered was PDFs. When I am on the web, and I click a link, I expect to go to another website. What I don't expect is to have a PDF thrown at me. I don't think its that hard to put the content of your menu on a web page. And once its there, its searchable, indexable, accessible, and way less annoying. PDFs were not created for the web. They were created to transport documents for printing.
So if you have any say in any restaurants website, please encourage them to translate their menu into html. Its just better for us all.
And please, don't get me started on bus schedules.
