Once in a while, I get this feeling that I have been involved with web development for more than ten years now. \u00a0And then I see a masterpiece that humbles me, and brings me back to the ground. \u00a0With supersonic speeds. \u00a0And it even hurts sometimes to the point that I don’t want to touch a computer ever again. \u00a0The official website of Jim Carrey<\/a> had just that effect on me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It is conceptually perfect and has outstanding execution. \u00a0I don’t even know where to begin…<\/p>\n

Firstly, it matches my perception of Jim Carrey’s image and character. \u00a0I consider him to be a sad cloud of some sort. \u00a0He is a genius in comedy, and has also a very strong dramatic side to him. \u00a0This combination, I think, makes him into a very popular person who has nobody to talk to. \u00a0Not necessarily so, but you get the idea. \u00a0The website supports this perception of mine. \u00a0It is comical, yet sad, and very very original.<\/p>\n

Secondly, the combination of visual art and music is stunning. \u00a0 There is so much to look at. \u00a0Unlike most other sites where you spend a fraction of a second to analyze the page in front of you and navigate to the point that you needed. \u00a0Here you can stay on each page for minutes, looking at each and every little tiny detail. \u00a0Awesome!<\/p>\n

Thirdly, it is quite interesting technically. \u00a0I am a strong supporter of the concept that good technology should be almost\u00a0unnoticeable. It should do what it is supposed to do without\u00a0attracting too much attention to itself. \u00a0And this website has a few good examples. \u00a0See, for example, how Twitter is implemented. \u00a0Visualized as a bird on a tree, with Jim’s face, that speaks out word by word his latest tweets. \u00a0How awesome is that? \u00a0I bet you’ve seen a billion Twitter integrations to all sorts of websites till now, but you haven’t seen one like this. \u00a0Or maybe you have. \u00a0I haven’t. \u00a0And Twitter integration is not the only example – there is the animation between different sections of the site, photo album, trailers of Jim Carrey’s movies, and more. \u00a0Bits and pieces are spread across the whole thing, leaving you know choice but to explore.<\/p>\n

I think if we had much less of marketing and public relations online, the web would look more like this. \u00a0At the stage we are now, it seems only students and independent individuals can afford to have such websites (and I am not talking about money). \u00a0The rest are expecting the website to be “professional” and so on and so forth. \u00a0Which results in all those pieces of crap we have around. \u00a0I’m just saying that sites don’t get much more professional than this one.<\/p>\n

Bravo to Jim Carrey for “approving” it, and for all those people who participated in creating it. \u00a0A masterpiece, an online piece of art. \u00a0Nothing less.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
