Google's Captcha Hell
We really should be past captcha by now.
I could hardly think of a better way to screw up the user experience than forcing someone to read a hard to read word.
Actually I can - that's failing to log you in, but not telling you whether the login was incorrect, or the captcha was incorrect. As an exercise in 'how pissed off can we make our users' it's A+.
Sure, in theory it's more secure to do things that way. Forcing you to pop into the Google offices for an anal probe and interview before you login is more secure too.
Actually could that be another reform Larry is desperate to get rolling since getting back in charge?
Just tell us which one is wrong because seriously, I've got better f****** things to do with my day than try and decipher some text that is deliberately hard to read! Communist Russia couldn't come up with a more ridiculous task.
In fact, come up with a better solution, you're Google FFS!
