GenCon Database = USELESS!!!

Ok, it's been a few years since Peter Adkinson's been running GenCon and the single most important piece of content on the web site, the event list, is still a 4king Excel doc download with unusable columns.

Can we get a web based list and search please?!?!?! AIGH!

Sheesh... I guess I'm getting so upset because I'm a web developer and it wouldn't take that much to do it.

you should check out the GenCon UK web page... though it has an online reservation for events... It is the most un user friendly thing I have ever seen....

Two bits of irony...

#1 the GenCon UK site is actually tremendously more user-friendly than the Excel doc.
#2 http://www.gencon.co.uk/ which I originally went to, resolves to a web development company!

I actually prefer the excel doc. Maybe it's because I work with excel at work all the time, but for me, it's a lot easier to sort, search, and choose what to display.
