We should have had a plan to do something with the NTK site after we trailed off updating it, but I don’t think we could have come up with something as deeply wonderful as ntk.org.uk, part of the current No To Knives campaign in the UK.
Things I like about this site:
- It’s all in Flash.
- It’s aiming to get 1,000,000 people to pledge not to carry knives on the hard streets of Britain
- So far, they’ve got seven.
- I can’t link to anything on it, because it’s all in Flash.
- But that’s okay, because the terms of conditions would ban me from doing so anyway:
You may link to our home page, provided you do so in a way that is fair and legal and does not damage our reputation or take advantage of it, but you must not establish a link in such a way as to suggest any form of association, approval or endorsement on our part where none exists. You must not establish a link from any website that is not owned by you.
- Also, I had to quote that bit, because they also say:
We may revise these terms of use at any time by amending this page. You should check this page from time to time to take notice of any changes we made, as they are binding on you. Some of the provisions contained in these terms of use may also be superseded by provisions or notices published elsewhere on our website.
- Amusingly, the terms and conditions are the only page that I can link to, because it’s the only page not in Flash.
- …unlike their accessibility page, which you can only get to in (inaccessible) Flash.
And I haven’t even started on my questions about why the Royal Armouries of all people want everyone to stop carrying knives. Is this like how only the Queen can own swans?
