Contest: Worst About Text on the Web

Published 2008-02-14 by Hugh

I am launching a contest: the Worst About Text on the Web. First paragraph only. Comment below with your entry, and a link to the offending text. An expert panel of Judges from Around the Universe will decide on the winner, announced one month from today (if anyone submits anything).

Winner gets a free beer from me, possibly something more exciting.

Here is my entry, from Everyzing.com:

    I think ‘consumer-facing’ is my new hatorite – that would be favorite text to hate.

    Although ‘best in class’ comes in at close second. What class are they talking about? Digital marketing scuzzball 101?
