Interesting Idea
There’s someone with a sense of humour working for Virgin Trains website. I’m simultaneously reading a User Interface book, making a critique of my own website, and trying to book tickets (again) so it’s not really the train ride that’s occupying my attention. After managing to find how to book tickets (yeah, it’s the big logo thing saying ‘click here’, but have you seen the ‘Do Not Trust This Man’ sketch by Dom Joly - sometimes things are too obvious), I eventually get to the first bit of booking a ticket.
Where would you like to go?
If you haven’t decided, leave blank and let us suggest a destination for you
What? You’ve gone to book a ticket, logged in, and you don’t know where you are going? Still, I’m tempted to use the feature - saves me having to plan where to go travelling. Perhaps I should just keep buying singles and see where I end up.
