The Daily Sucker - Current examples of bad web design

The Daily Sucker

Sites featured in articles like Worst Websites of 2010 often are redesigned, which explains why some sites mentioned in my articles don't match their current look. The Daily Sucker features current examples of bad web design which haven't been fixed (yet).

If you see a site that you think sucks, email the URL to me. No personal pages (personal pages are supposed to reflect the individual's personality and artistic freedom) or web site designers (it would look like a conflict of interest), or others of their ilk.

If I think there's some merit to your selection, I may post it along with some commentary. If you know of a site that qualifies, let me know.

Submitter’s comments: When I first saw this site and noted the dreaded “schemas-microsoft-com:office:office,” I figured it simply didn’t work well with Firefox. Not the case. It looks the same in I.E.

I am not certain there are any lessons to be learned here. This is simply stupid. On many pages the content simply starts half-way down the page due to a doubling of the side menu. Even if you are part of the slap-it-together-and-post-that-puppy crowd, it is hard to believe that no one noticed this on the damn homepage at least.

There are a couple of other problem (home page is named “Index”), but who cares?

Vincent Flanders’ comments: I always admire people’s inability to see the obvious. This isn’t one of the dreaded IE6 bugs that screw your site up but you won’t notice cause you don’t have IE6 on your machine situations. You can see it in about any browser you try.
