By Scott Calonico

- 6 Dezember, 2011

How many times has this scenario happened to you? Pulling up the website of a company to find out some scrap of information - their contact number, email address or even how to order their product - and you're completely lost in a world of pop up pages, hard to read text and, worst of all, the dreaded Flash loading screen.
