About fusion restaurants' websites, from McSweeney's. However, you need not be a fusion restaurant in Brooklyn to be guilty of these web vices. Just ask JGV. I do not know why restaurants are uniquely vulnerable to the temptation of websites that play music. Is the conversation something like: "I know! If we have MUSIC, people will DANCE when they look at our website, and get HUNGRY, and come to our restaurants and order lots of FOOD!"
Other industries have figured this out. JetBlue does not serenade you with mariachi music in hopes you will book a trip to Cancun along with that Wed AM flight to Charlotte. For some reason, certain fields of human endeavor have strange aesthetic blind spots -- there is no reason why snowmobiling outfits need to make you look like a thrown up on Christmas tree, but they do.
I don't know. There's an Indian buffet in Philly whose website plays a "Rocky" theme / Bollywood mash-up that's really kind of awesome.

I haven't been up to much lately. So it goes. What can I say? I've just been letting everything wash over me recently, not that it matters. I just don't have much to say these days.
