Perhaps one of the worst web design studios around!

hypotheticals.org — I've seen some pretty bad sites, but nothing compares to this one. I don't know what's worse: the Michael Jackson midi in the background, the obnoxious banner at the top, the scrolling marquee that overlaps text or the fact that they make websites for a living...

  • dizzybastard, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9DUGG just for the Michael Jackson midi =)
  • comzip99, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13This is priceless:

    I looked at the source of the page and found this:

    No right click script v.2.5
    (c) 1998 barts1000
    barts1000@aol.com
    Don't delete this header!
    */

    var message="SORRY HACKER BUT GOOD TRY.nIF YOU TRY AGAIN IT WILL CALL THE COPSnHAHAHAHAHAH BYE!";

    // Don't edit below!

    function click(e) {
    if (document.all) {
    if (event.button == 2) {
    alert(message);
    return false;
    }
    }

    This "Web designer" has a suppress right click script that doesn't work in firefox /
    it is completely useless!
    • maninblac1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It doesn't work in any browser, you can view source from the menu in IE too.
    • Joshua, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2LOL! That is awesome!
    • Rosco, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1He must be related to Gregg of Trailerparkpage fame. And the Hacker comment, well that page is now begging to be hacked. Who knows, it may already have been hacked and this is what we have now?
  • addakorn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+14I never thought anyone could outdo myspace. I admit I was wrong!

    That makes 3 times thus life.
  • internetsalsa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4And they have 13 years of expertise in HTML....are you kidding me?
    Is this a set up or what?
    May be to attract people for google ad clicks.
    • Emilio8605, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I think he's referring to him being 13 years old. He's been in the business of living for 13 years. The web thing he started last month.
    • ChosunBimbo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I thought it said he wrote the HTML 13 years ago
    • NathanBalon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That has to be one of the worst sites I have ever seen. I don't think anyone in their right mind would want him to work for them. If he has 13 years of experience I think he could have done a better job on the site to promote his services. The site looks like he has a few days of experience.

      As you mentioned internetsalsa, he may be just trying to create sites to generate money from the ads without carrying what the content is on the site. I think someone would be better off getting a high school kid to work on their site than him.

    Ok, that just proves this 'business' is fake. And looks like buddy's a pharmacist based on the backdrop, the only other explanation is that he designed this site while he was supposed to fill a prescription.
    • cdahlkvist, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Or he designed this site after taking the wrong prescription
  • eldingo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I remember back in the day.... when HTML was the just as new as a 9600 baud modem. At that time when I was in high school learning HTML this would have been "wow". Pictures. Music. ummmm... wow.....
  • tingle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That's him too it seems.

  • Pernz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5dugg for a good laugh
  • litith, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That is just painful -- we need to expose this treachery to the....errr, ouch? Yeah, did anyone even teach him about HTML? Standards? Anything? Oh, and, apparently hackers will right click on the page, seriously, is that a joke?

    Dear me...
  • citor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1that poor kid will once make a ton of money :D
  • Lorian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6"We are experts in html"

    Really? You have a ***** hotmail tag instead of html!
    • Niten, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That was the point at which I realized this must be a hoax. Seriously, nobody can be that bad... right?
  • Gregd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5"Because You Are The Customer"

    That's a little presumptious don't cha think???
  • maninblac1, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2Experts in HTML and JAVA, heard of CSS PHP or ASP? He's going to be doing some amazing design i'm sure.

    I'd hack the site, but there's nothing to hack, it's comprized of a few meaningless pages.
    • Markus123, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7"I'd hack the site, but there's nothing to hack, it's comprized of a few meaningless pages."

      Congrats, you're a moron.
  • EvilSanta, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Wahahahaha.....that was fun....
    Even if it's fake it's fun.
  • mowyouover, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Wait, I was thinking about ordering a site like that.
    • Joshua, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I'll make you one for half of what they're offering.
  • aojedag, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1LOL.
  • azrael13666, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Has got to be a joke...
  • tempusrob, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5This has got to be a joke (or a ploy for adsense clicks). Look at the thumbnail for the site when I check the site at whois.sc ... http://source.domaintools.com/tn.html?domain=hypotheticals.org&t=0
  • Spook27, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Huh, an expert in HTML?

    The front page of the site generates two errors and 22 warnings in the W3C validator. I guess he's using a another meaning of the word "expert"...
  • zforrester, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Gotta be joking... someone contact the guy
  • battlefield1985, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1It's too bad this won't make diggnation EP 58, I'd like to hear Kevin and Alex's thoughts of it.
  • theotherlight, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Web 3.0 at it's best. The next version of the web is going to be vintage, looking back at the early days of HTML. This man is showing you the future, so embrace it!
  • K4P741NxKRUNCH, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Holy hell, that guys is definitely a genious, how did he manage those javascript alert popups??

    He must have at LEAST 13 years of experience!
  • Sonic84, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1when i read the title and discription, I immediately thought "myspace"
  • imyayo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2No Digg for this. Doesn't surprise me at all, there are 100's if not 1000's of people who take up website design for a hobby after studying it somewhere then think they can make websites.

    The sad fact is there are clueless people who pay for such things.
  • atomicspin, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Did Bud Uglly do it?
    http://www.budugllydesign.com/
  • Anjow, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Obviously fake...
  • sandberg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I googled for Anthony Sosnick, and found another website about him, which doesn't seem to be designed by himself: http://www.anthony.com. Click About Anthony, it's definitely the same guy.

    "Anthony Logistics For Men is a multi-functional, multi-benefit, naturally based personal care system of skincare and bath and body products designed for men."

    He seems like a very busy guy.
  • AmishFBI, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Hey all,

    This is my site, surprised to see it got Dugg, heh. Anyhow, I updated the site with my response.

    Cheers,

    Tyler
  • rockerarj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hey I guess this is the guy who owns http://www.modulussystems.com which is one of the best website design companies in India.

    Surprisingly, his aesthetic sense for his own websites is not that great ;)
  • rockerarj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Naah, I guess not, just checked, he's not Indian.. or just maybe.. India is a budding web design market.

    That site http://www.modulussystems.com has great web rankings.. and how? They have all the keywords hidden in div tags in H1..

    I'm confused. Anyone ever read about this SEO strategy?

    Does it belong to him?
  • dotchronic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yeah, this is Tylers' Site. He updated it with a response (as he said above)...
