Ugh.

That’s about all I have to say about the Dojo Toolkit’s web site. What the hell is up with the whole idea that “pageless” web sites are “cool”? They suck. You can’t bookmark them and in the case of Dojo’s site, the whole goddamn thing falls apart if you hit the “back” button.

Note: This does not apply to pageless web applications. Just content sites that decide that it’s a good idea to break a UI convention/paradigm that’s been around since the beginning of the web.

Not a good sales pitch for your toolkit (which is pretty cool, BTW)…

And while I’m calling out the Dojo dudes on my completely visitor-less web page, I have to say it really sucks that most beginner-level questions posted to your mailing list (the only way you can get any help with their more-than-1000-file-and-almost-completely-undocumented Javascript library) go unanswered. I know it sucks to answer the “OMFG, Dojo is SOOO Kewl, how dO i put my widget on TeH iNTaRw3Bs?”… but ya gotta do it kids. Those people who are trying to learn are gonna be the ones to evangelize your product.
