We found no shortage of sites that are poorly designed or boring, but we list here some of the sites that go that extra mile--the dazzlingly ugly, the patently offensive, and the mind-bogglingly pointless. http://www.itworld.com/internet/55580/bottom-10-webs-most-useless-sites#comments Internet Opinion web site Thu, 02 Oct 2008 15:10:55 -0400 ITworld staff 55580 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/internet/55579/8-great-how-web-sites The "wisdom of the crowd" model works very well for how-to and advice sites like Yahoo Answers and Instructables.
