    It's strange how horizontal scrolling feels so much worse than vertical.

    What do you think? If the general design was a bit nicer it might actually work OK IMO.

    That is a strange experience, I'm all up for trying new things but that just ain't going to take off any time soon.

    Hi,

    I dunno if I could ever get on with that. It did my head in trying to cope. It might be through habbit though and, like you say, with a tider design might work... but I'm in the verticle camp right now. Especially with my scroll-wheel on the mouse!

    Cheers

    Chris

    It's certainly different. My mouse has a horizontal/vertical scroll action though, so it's do-able. Still, I don't think it will catch on...

    Really I don't like it... but I enjoy the fact that people are trying something different on the internet to keep things interesting
