The original Azure progress bar was Microsoft’s crowning masterpiece of progress bars. It would very slowly fill up, and then wrap around and start to fill up again. To be fair, all of the animations in that early KnockoutJs version of the Azure portal were just incredible to watch, and someone must have put a lot more effort into them than they did adding features.

To be fair, it's really fun to work on that kind of animation. At least 50x more fun than debugging problems in your business logic.
