For me is the BEST language ever made by men. Yeah their site needs
make-up but comparing with its features cosmetics for me drops to zero
importance.
In American(USA) slang terms: Haskell is the shit! :D
Sorry if the above was offensive but it puts it the way i feel it.

And the Erlang people don't really care if you use Erlang. Much like many
other open source systems, they use it internally and make it available to
you if you feel like it. (They don't have a bug-tracker up, because then
you might be able to see proprietary bugs, for example.)

"proprietary bugs" was a finding. :D

I know it's a pretty weak idea but all I think about when I hear "Haskell"
is Wallys' smarmy buddy Eddie!

It's actually named after a person.
That person's name - absurdly enough - was Haskell B. Curry. o_O
They were going to name the language Curry - but they figured the jokes
would never end. As it is, they failed to realise that Haskell sounds
just like Pascal (which is also a programming language), and also
"hassle" and "rascle"...

A Japanese company that makes LCDs and TVs and stuff.
They don't seem to have the hang of European style marketing yet, and think
that a website design for a Japanese audience will also work well in Europe.
Actually I think it's more that the IT systems worldwide are so fragmented
that each country basically does what it thinks best with their very small
team of people, and you end up with a load of separate websites that all
look completely different and nobody sees the need for the .com domain.
Occasionally someone from Japan sees one of these other websites and makes
some demands about what should be changed, and you end up with hideous
looking stuff.
Given that sales last year in Europe alone were several billion pounds, I
think they should spend some money on getting their online presence
together, but then that's just me and nobody who makes that sort of decision
even knows I exist!

Sounds familiar... :-S
The company *I* work for has been known by a small handful of different
acronyms in its time. Apparently "this confuses our customers", so we're
on a big rebranding kick. We're throwing away all the old names and
sticking to just one of them from now on. And we've got a shiny new logo
that consists of that name. (It's actually rather nice, as corporate
logos go. At least it looks clean and modern now!)
And we're changing our website and our email addresses to match. Oh,
except it *doesn't* match. It's one of the old acronyms.
Wait... WTF?

It looks a tad harsh, but the genius of it is that it's 5 straight
lines. You can render it any way you like, and it's still the logo! :-D
Hell, you can even do this:
____ ____

It does look nice simple and effective, but put some colour in there!
