Opinion Piece: The Sun Microsystems website is ugly now that Oracle run it





Emblazoned across every page on the Sun Microsystems website you now see the Oracle logo.  They have basically modified the style sheets to display gray beams here and there and the logo shows up on every page. If you visit http://www.sun.com now, it automatically redirects to the Oracle site. Some of the java.sun.com pages that used to have more content are now trimmed down and thus less useful. The good old calm blueness of the Java site is forever gone and the new industrial, corporate grey and red has replaced it. It is now an unbearably ugly website and frankly, it fills me with grief.. I hate the Oracle logo and the redness. Oracle are branding Sun with a red hot iron and man it hurts. /bitch

Thankfully, the MySQL website has not been violated... yet.

  2. You're joking right? The Sun logo is really smart. All it needed was a web 2.0 makeover.
