Very interesting.

I think that the point is not about usability, or people not reaching the content, or any kind of UX issue. Is a business issue.

As someone said in ux.stackexchange.com:

Update:

Why have I not received my tickets? — Monarch are a ticket-less airline. All you need to check in is your booking reference along with your passport or a valid EU national identity card (supported by any other relevant documentation such as visas).

First, see this great post of Jack Morgan, showing a beautiful UI design concept extending Google Glass.

And after that, have a look at Sight, a futuristic short film.

Update:

let's put it bigger:

The problem is not the scroll parallax, not the CSS3 or HTML5 video or PNG24 or whatever, the problem is not that the website is responsive or it should not use jQuery.

Let’s not blame the tools.

85MB and 464 requests.

85MB for a website :-(

Update:

Do you remember those 'good' old times, when SEO was the big boom?

You could start your own business and earn lots of money just with those three magic letters. Those were crazy times, with hundreds of SEO experts and gurus empowering meta tags, link farms, buzzwords and other stuff.

Just saying "If don't have a good SEO strategy no one will visit your website" and everyone was scary enough to give you god-like powers :-P

Obviously there were also good SEO, content-focused, w3c compliant and no-flash, but hey, it was hard to find one on that kind!

Now let's fast forward 10 years to the present and here comes UX, the next big thing.

I'm afraid — very afraid! — that UX is going to held the next war between good and bad professionals :-( mostly because I can see some similarities between SEO and UX:

Both try to understand something no one really knows: human brain and Google PageRank are a black box impossible to understand.

Both are a must in your company — not having a UX/SEO will make no one will use/find your website, you will lose money and god will kill a cat

Both involve a lot of common-sense.

Also, both have their own language, easy to mix with bullshit
