Default FT.com - Hidden Links Are "Pretty"

This is kinda funny...

A few weeks ago we had a story wherein the Financial Times website was caught hidding gobs of links to another financial site, moneysupermarket.com

This week, Financial Times offered an explanation...

Quote:
Jolie Hunt, a spokeswoman for the Financial Times in New York, said the site had a business partnership with Moneysupermarket.com, and that the invisibility had been a matter of aesthetics. "They just didn't want to clog up the real estate with an overt link," she said. "As soon as we figured out it was something we weren't supposed to do, we took it right down immediately."

Cite: New York Times via CNET

LOL
