Sucky web design for beginners

If you've visited here before, I guess you already know by now that I'm a bit of a critic of sucky web design. Well, I just got spammed by some bloke from a recruiting agency by the name of Techgen, proudly telling me to check out their brand new "snazzy whiz-bang" website.

Techgen's sucky website design metaphor

Shortly afterwards I noticed that some bloke called "David" (who apparently also got spammed) left a comment on my blog, effectively nominating their "snazzy whiz-bang" website in my flashturbation hall of shame.

Geez, I didn't think I'd see this level of design stupidity in 2008. This type of juvenile metaphor was used a fair bit in 1998, but that was 10 years ago. And these people are allegedly an IT recruiting firm.

Due to the large volume of spam, comments are disabled. If you have anything to say, please feel free to contact me directly.
