Not for the faint of heart (nor many websites!!!)
Still, any certified Font collector should have this one!

Granted, they did have a stop and go control on that site, but in general, unless it's real video, I find it pretty pointless beyond the first visit, and usually pointless then too. Part of the "wowwee - look what I can do" school of web design. Now...back to the salt mines...er, web design for real clients.

What I fail to understand (among several hundred thousand!) is why one would want this kind of 'text' display every time the page opens?! People complain now if it takes more than three seconds for a page to load, why would anyone want to wait to see whatever the text was going to say... even the first time?!

Does the annoying moving font come with the annoying music?
kimmer, I'm sure they could arrange for you to have that 'music.' Of course, you'd want to have the "ON/OFF" button labeled with the animated text with as long a word as possible and maybe below 'the fold' so it wouldn't be too obvious or easily seen... 
Anyway, I guess I know what NOT to get you two for Christmas...

OTOH, their 'hip', tech-savvy audience probably thinks it's perfectly fine.

Maybe they heard all your complaints.
