Today’s Tip:
If you are going to have links on your page make sure they look like links. Also make sure all text has enough contrast against the background to allow everyone to scan your page easily without having to squint or adjust their monitors. The WCAG 2.0 recommends “The visual presentation of text and images of text has a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1″

Did you notice that their main navigation all started with the letter “A”? Seemed unusual. Yes, I agree with you: the animation on the home page was too slow, and took my attention away from other content on the home page. Liked the imagery on their site.
Thanks for the kudos on the Internet User Experience 2009 conference!
