It seems to me that you can create beautiful, impactful, cool sites, but in the end they all look a bit the same, with the same spacing, the same effects, the same boring desire to amaze at all costs.
The content is supposed to be king but it seems that in these sites it becomes secondary as well as making the reading of the text almost disturbing, it just seems the excuse to show some cool stuff.
Now that I said how much I like it :) I also say that I don't like anything that modifies the natural behavior of browsers, they always seem like unnecessary forcing, which many times can create doubts in 'normal users' who are not involved in the design or dev sector, breaking another of my few golden rules 'don't make me think'..
And if you don't understand it is the fault of google translator ;)
