Visceral, Behavioral, and Reflective Websites.

• Visceral level

Cute (the penguin), comforting (circular shape), simple:
http://www.penguin.com/index.html?redirect=

Appealing to all things cutesy and feminine:
http://www.cuteoverload.com/

Soft colors, little butterfly image (it makes me feel good):
http://www.besweetproducts.com/

Made me want to turn away before I even downloaded the plug ins:
http://www.doom3.com/

Honestly, I love this author, but the weird black on red thing kind of makes me want to turn away:
http://tanyahuff.net/

Beige... My initial impression was that it was smooth and inviting. I think they did a good job on appealing to people's want for comfort:
http://www.olivegarden.com/

It appeals to my inner need for cute... The Hitler part is kind of awkward though:

• Behavioral

Slow loading time, obnoxious flash:
http://flasharcade.com/

Crowded, boxy, somewhat confusing:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

Dark colors, kind of a haunting feel (but it's a place to play games and watch videos... odd):
http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/

Cheesy, bland, and... information about snakes. Too much information... :
http://42explore.com/snake.htm

Loading time, poor color choices... boring:
http://chris.pirillo.com/

WAY too crowded. As if the IEEE mark wasn't scaring me away to begin with:
http://www.smalltimes.com/

Clean enough, black vs. white website... gets the job done, don't feel much towards it:
http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=7635018

Black vs. yellow, eye-catching. Interesting pictures (if not weird pictures):
http://www.paramore.net/

The separating boxes kind of make me feel strange, disconnected (much I like I feel while reading some of his books):
http://www.raybradbury.com/

He's smiling in his picture, but I'm not smiling at his beige page. His books is far more interesting than his web page:
http://www.psych.mcgill.ca/levitin/

Plain... green... I'm beginning to wonder who makes author's pages. They're far more boring than the books they write:
http://www.philip-pullman.com/

Very colorful. Maybe they're trying to tell you that organic food has better coloring than veggies filled with chemicals:
http://www.amys.com/

• Reflective

Somehow, even the fact I have to download a plug in for this page reminds me of Nike; slow, not that cool, and so overrated:
http://www.nike.com/index.jhtml

(Okay, a brand only I know... but!) Relatively organized, lots of links (that lead where their supposed to), good products and prompt replies (yes, I have bought from this site before XD):
http://dollmore.net/

Slow loading, at least the design is nice. I've heard positive and negative things about Toshiba, so I'd vote their website makes them look a bit better than they actually are:
http://www.toshiba.com/tai/

Clean, pretty and cute (everything I think about when someone says Nintendo):
http://www.nintendo.com/countryselector

Loading time is okay, and you know there is always going to be something funny:
http://youtube.com/

Slow loading time... I'm not surprised really considering how slow they publish books. The main page seem a bit busy:
http://www.tokyopop.com/

Cutesy, but really it reminds me more of a Myspace page than a company that publishes books:
http://www.advfilms.com/

Black and boring. Maybe they were going for professional. I suppose they succeeded. Once you click in, it starts looking much more like I feel it should (like a gaming company... with pictures of their games):
http://www.square-enix.com/

Note: what Google first brings up is a direct link to their shopping page:
http://www.att.com/gen/general?pid=9147&GUID=30f96392-bdd9-4aa6-8dd7-287a01fa092cGUID=30f96392-bdd9-4aa6-8dd7-287a01fa092c

But their real website is much more, "oh look around first, THEN buy stuff!" Of course, maybe this is also to tell the people who are already their customers that they can pay their bill, or whatever else they need to do:
http://www.att.com/gen/landing-pages?pid=3308

Dear God, why is the loading time so awful?! My page keeps spazzing ou... it won't even finish loading. I don't have bad impression of them from their commercials (but I would after this site):
https://www22.verizon.com

"When you're here you're family." My family isn't that into beige, but okay, maybe we can put some pretty pictures on the beige walls:
