certain applications on web sites should not be web sites. I have just recently looked at webpagesthatsuck.com, a web site that rates the worst web sites in the past years, and I couldn't believe what I saw. So, from this site I have developed my own list: 10 things that shouldn't be on a web site.
  • different backgrounds for each page
  • over 10 links on one page
  • pages filled with nothing but the same image
  • unnecessary flashing images
  • having useless pages
  • having the page filled up with animated images
  • having navigation in an useless spot
  • having a div tag separated for different colors
  • useless information
  • an uncompleted page
