See my earlier rant:

It's all over engineered but nothing works, simple but obfuscated and incomprehensible. That's not even getting into all the garbage ads and "SHARE MEEE" buttons on websites.

Now I open Chrome and go to my bookmark manager and I get tiles of ALL of my bookmarks on one screen. My folders are there, but there isn't a way to see only the bookmarks that aren't in folders, they are mixed in with all the others. Thanks Google, what was previously usable is now not, but it has more colors, so there's that guess. ugh.

The Evernote web beta is frustrating too. It looks nicer, less distracting. However, everything is constantly resizing, disappearing, popping up, features I don't know about are hidden.

I appreciate good design, I like when things look clean and get out of my way, I like new approaches. I run linux on one of my machines and generally really like Gnome 3. The web though... ugh.
