Booking online: Slave to the web... but in a good way

"You have to be a slave to your website."

...says Hoseasons boss Richard Carrick.

Hearts probably sink around the room. Who wants that?

But an instructive slide appears: A travel homepage with video of a user attempting to use it at the bottom right of the screen. (Update - I think it was actually an old Hoseasons page. Bold choice.)

He's not getting it: There's too much text, he's not sure what to look at. He sounds confused.

No, it's worse than that: He just sounds bored.

Point made. Pass the manacles...
