Here's a site that my CIS teacher in college showed us in class as an example of everything that can be done wrong in website design. I must have laughed for four days after first being introduced to this...

Clicking the 'About Me' page pretty much allowed me to cement my opinion of him in one second, just by that picture alone.

Probably not.

I had a lady friend that posted a personal ad on craigslist to find a guy to date. This guy replied to her ad a gave a link to his website. I kid you not.

"Chad Nelson's greatest interest is himself and his continuing fascination with narcissism" -- my proposed addition text for this website (sure to capture the attention of the ladies)

No, I think that's called having too much time to make a site in response to a site that had too much thought put into it.

There is a reason why we elect people to make decisions for the rest of us. Because the masses are stupid. Most worthless "news" site ever.

I find any Myspace page intolerably stupid. I wont even click anymore if someone sends me a link to their myspace page (I also reconsider the status of my association with said personage).

Any forum that has festive f**king snow effects (don't even think about it arn). Not only does it make me hate Christmas even more than I already do, but they stress my MacBook and send my fans crazy. I visited one recently that made my MacBook run as slow as some of the posters there.

TV.com, because TV Tome was awesome and CNet ruined it. MacWorld.com because MacCentral.com used to be awesome, but then they up and changed it, deleting people's accounts and making them start all over again from scratch with little to no warning. They also completely changed the page around without any feedback. Guess I'm spoiled by MacRumors, as Arn is pretty good about stuff like that. MacWorld just changed everything again, again without warning, and it just looks awful. Ads everywhere, even with an ad blocker. Used to go there almost everyday, was even getting used to the new, refined look. But not again, it just isn't worth it.

I work with Macs, and can use the tips and updates on new products, but there are plenty of other places to get that, including here and MacBytes.
