Why “Under Construction” should be made illegal on the web

The site www.emr.fr has been “under construction” for over eight years. I noticed it in June 1996 and check back on it periodically. Still Under Construction.

Another site that I noticed as “Under Construction” in June 1996 is www.leary.com. And as of this writing, it is still under construction.

Raymond has been involved in the evolution of Windows for more than 30 years. In 2003, he began a Web site known as The Old New Thing which has grown in popularity far beyond his wildest imagination, a development which still gives him the heebie-jeebies. The Web site spawned a book, coincidentally also titled The Old New Thing (Addison Wesley 2007). He occasionally appears on the Windows Dev Docs Twitter account to tell stories which convey no useful information.
