Scary Topic, Interesting Site...

So, I heard about the King Corn movie that just came out. It's a documentary about that vegetable that's in absolutely everything in the supermarket -- Corn.

When you think of the dietary impacts, it is pretty mind blowing.

Enough on that, here I want to mention their site, http://www.kingcorn.net.

While the artistry of the corn is pretty simple, I think the Flash execution is pretty nice and seemingly on equity.

From a usability standpoint, I've just got two concerns. First and foremost, damn that type is small. I could barely read it.

Second, it opens other portions of their site (i.e., the blog and the newsletter sign up) in separate windows without any obvious reason why and without warning.

Beyond these two things, I think their site is rather nice.
