An Open Letter to My Fellow Bloggers/Website Owners

 
Dear Fellow Blogger/Website Owner/Friend,

I came to your blog/site today looking for information or a bit of entertainment.  But instead, I was blasted by loud, and therefore necessarily obnoxious, music.  I could not close your site down fast enough.  My hand flew up to the right-hand corner as swiftly as my brain would take it. 

Now I appreciate that you love Jimmy Buffett or Lynyrd Skynyrd or Muse.  I really do.  But that doesn't necessarily mean I want to share the love with you.  I don't.  If my speakers are up, I actually feel as if I'm under attack.  So please, please, in the name of all that is good in the world, don't have "Margaritaville" load the minute I land on your page. 

If you must share your music, give me the option to click on a link.  Direct me to your favorite band's site on the Web.  Give me a choice.  Because honestly, if I find myself auditorally assaulted on your home page again, I probably won't be coming back.  I'll still love you.  But I won't be coming back.

Thanks so much,
Your Fellow in the Blogosphere/World Wide Web
