Last year we heard that the IEC (Independent Electoral Commission, who oversee our electoral process ensuring a free and fair election) would have their website overhauled so that it was compliant in all browsers, at a cost of R3million!
Now that might sound like a lot of money, it might not. If it was tax payers money (which I’m sure it was partly/wholely funded - then I’m disgsted and I want my share back!
Just look at these IEC website and even more shockingly the WorldCup 2010 website supposedly promoting the event for South Africa in 2010.
Now, a quick cursory check in the source of the website revelas that the author was proud enough of his work to put his name in the meta-tags.
Just take a look at this guy’s “resume” - wonder how he got the job? Pathetic!
I’ve been in this industy and business for a long time now and I know you can achieve 1000 times better quality work for 1% of what was spent - truly shocking to say the least!

This is absolutely disgraceful, and an embarrassment to our country. I hope the 2010 site is not being marketed abroad.

What an aweful website. The layout is a joke and it takes forever to load. It looks as if a 2 year old designed the site and is a complete waste of tax payer's money.

My HTML/Web dev students build better websites with their very first web developments. It is a disgrace for the whole IT industry. Isn't it the same crowd that "build" the weathersa.co.za website?

Come on people, why not use the 2010 site to advertise the high quality of design SA has to offer. This is shocking.

Eish! Can't get to the maps "access refused" - what's up with that? Mind you, try phoning - just as bad!
I know nothing about design but when I have to keep clicking to find info, I click away!!
