Please tell me this is a site from the 90's that someone forgot they were hosting, and not an actual site for a web development company!

So, I googled for that company name, and came up with [url=http://www.productperfection.com/]this glorious site[/url]. Check out the "Click Here To See The Power Behind Our Perfection Process" page.

Listed on his resume, which in itself is worth a read, is this site . Truly amazing.

These types of web sites remind me of when MS first came out with Word - everyone tried to use every variation of every font in every document, and your eyes hurt from that too. Then the grownups realized that 99.9% of the time, the default font was just fine for ... mostly everything.

New technology, same old ~~idiots~~ users!

At the bottom of one of his pages, a link with just an ellipsis. Proto-SEO!

Oh come on! He's in Vegas. This looks downright classy compared to most of Vegas.

So... his most recent jobs that can be assumed to be real (not sinecures) are seven months in 1992 then six months in 1986.

I was wondering whether this was some sort of elaborate joke - but when it extends past having Myspace (!) / Facebook / Twitter accounts to [url="http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showtopic=118428&view=findpost&p=993154"]being rebuked on Kaspersky's forum[/url]I don't think so.

But apparently his tagline is a [url="http://www.progress.org/quote8a.htm"]pithy quote[/url]!

In Career Highlights:

I call bullshit.

Didn't anyone
bother to use this website for a few days, BEFORE going into production?

I found the quote below ironic taking this event into consideration:

Do you want to know what's even sadder? Most businesses (at least the ones I'm familiar with here in Florida) would think this guy is great and laugh at the notion that his sites are amateur shite.

Part of the reason I won't try to do a web design business; there are a lot of people in this area like "WebKing" that seem to actually do a fair bit of business to ignorant businesspeople that think those sites are amazing and "just what we need".

If that's not "Worse Than Failure" I don't know what is!

Yo dawg! I heard you like geocities, so I put marquee tags in your marquee tags so you can have scrolling text in your scrolling text.

This isn't doing anything.

Try something like this:
<!DOCTYPE html> <marquee scrollamount="10" scrolldelay="8" direction="right" width="400px"> <marquee scrollamount="20" scrolldelay="79" width="400px"> <img src="some_image.jpg"> </marquee> </marquee>
You might have to adjust the values a little, I had only IE6 and Opera 10.10 to test it in.
