Besides the fact that scrolling marquees are annoying, they are possibly the least useful way of conveying information. When you have to communicate something in a limited amount of space, like news or stock prices on the outside of a building or headlines at the bottom of a TV screen (though I still find those distracting), a scrolling message may be necessary. However, on Web site, you have a whole computer screen to work with, which a user can scroll himself to read at his own pace. With a scrolling marquee, the user is forced to read the information at a pace determined by something out of his control. Plus, if he starts reading in the middle of the message, he has to wait for it to come all the way back around again to get all the information. To make things worse, people usually use the marquee tag to emphasize something important, yet doing so makes it even more difficult to get the information.
