Talking Very interesting and well done:


Great use of white space, design, motion, sound, image, color. I have a 56k dial up and so there is a big lag from the initial flash/"loading" and your home page. You might say something like be patient fool.

Huge Bob Marley (reggae period fan here) Very nice.......

The only problem is I don't have "Real player" at work so I couldn't listen or view the video.

Talking The second time around:



The changes you made to your flash and bridge to your home page is a good improvement. For those who are not on cable or DSL it is much more reassuring than previous. I initially visited your site using IE and M/S MultiMedia Player so of course I was not able to play your songs or video. I then tried Moz 1.3 and Quick Time. My Quick Time does not play your flash nor home page background sound and of course none of your songs or video. The burden you put on your site visitor is somewhat discouraging. Just what video plug-in I should specify with my Quick Time is somewhat bewildering. And so, a nice site for the RealOnes.

Talking Your new - new flash bridge


is even better than the last.

Free Trial.
The operative word here is Trial. Sooner or latter you got to pay RealOnes to get the NextOne/NextLevel. I have several versions Moz and NetScapes. All were downloaded with Real and I have dutifully scrubbed my PCs of these tar babies. Thus my use of Quick Time with Moz and NetScapes.

Your site. Your rules.

I'm a bit confused here - who needs to pay for realplayer? And what is NextOne/Nextleve? (And what is a tar baby??!).

You're earlier comment about Flash is also confusing me - Quicktime is not a Flash player! Flash is a small, light, open, free, quick and excellent format. Quicktime is a grossly inefficient, huge, annoying popup hell of an app! Why would you want to try and play Flash content with it?

Ay Mannn!

Sweet site. I love Bob and you've created a great Tribute. Good Job.

As far a real player is concerned. If you're not selling stuff, then those that don't have it loaded don't need to listen. BTW, I don't use it either, but I did like your site.
