Best example:  Google.  It's fun because it's light and has a terrific 
sense of humor.  But it doesn't let humor or "fun" get in the way of 
simplicity and productivity.  It's one of the easiest to use sites on 
the 'Net.  The mistake too many folks make is believing that 
entertainment is or should be complicated...and that complicated sites 
are automatically more entertaining.  Fallacies, both.
