War Child
It amazes me how much this site sucks. It seems to me that not only is the site NOT run by U2 fans, but that the people in charge of the content on the site are not passionate about the band in any way, shape or form.
Being the 'official' U2 web site, they have access to the band, tons and tons of media and the inside scoop on U2 news. However, there seems to be no effort to put these exclusive elements together to make a kick-ass U2 site. Instead they produce weak video, tired quotes and yesterday's news. Why not put fans in charge of the site?
If I were in charge of the site, I'd constantly be cutting new, cool video montages from old footage in the archives. And I'd often be updating the fans about the status of the new album. Why not go and do a quick interview in the studio and ask the boys how they're doing on the album? Shoot it on video and put it on the site, it'd take like an hour and the fans would go crazy for it. I'd also encourage fans to be more involved with the content of the site.
To sum up, U2.com just seems very corporate and in need of some passion. I know they said that they're re-modeling it and I hope they can pump some life into it, because it needs it.
